National Highways are now scheduled to return on Monday 16 January 2023 to complete the outstanding works and have a new completion date of Friday 20 January 2023

7th November 2022 - Notice from National Highways:

Work is due to start Monday 7 November 2022 and scheduled for completion by 17 December 2022. Please note that all our planned roadworks may be subject to change due to weather or unforeseen circumstance.

To keep our programme for these works as short as possible and to minimise disruption to the local community, residents, businesses and road users, we will work under full southbound carriageway closures between 8pm and 6am, Monday to Friday.

During these road closures fully signed diversion routes will be in place, which have been agreed with the Local Authority. We will make sure that access to businesses and residences is maintained wherever possible.

Diversion(s) Motorway Traffic: Traffic will be diverted to take the A43 Northbound M1 J15A entry slip, travel Northbound to M1 J15 where traffic is to exit and take the 1st exit onto the A45 and continue on the A45 to its junction with the A5, where traffic takes the 1st left and heads South to A5 Towcester Roundabout.

Non-Motorway Traffic: Traffic to take the A51213 Northbound, continue onto the A5076 and then take the 1st left onto the A4500 towards M1 J15, where traffic takes the A45 to its junction with the A5, where traffic takes the 1st left and heads South to A5 Towcester Roundabout.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused and will do our very best to complete the work as quickly as possible, keeping disturbances and noise to a minimum.
