ST IVES VIADUCT MAINTENANCE

Cambridgeshire County Council (CCC) have informed us of their proposed closure of St Ives Viaduct, A1096, Harrison Way, St Ives over three weekends.  The closures will run from 20:30 on the Friday until 05:00 on Monday morning during the following weekends;

 

18^th March 2022 – 21^st March 2022

25^th March 2022- 28^th March 2022

1^st April 2022 – 4^th April 2022  

8^th April 2022 – 11^th April 2022

 

The reason for the closures are that the bridge joints that were installed in 2017 have been found to have faults within the joints themselves and concrete, and need to be repaired.  This will mean CCC require access to the entire stretch of the carriageway and are looking to minimise commuter traffic by carrying out 24hr works on rotating shifts at weekends.  It is hoped they can complete one joint per weekend, hence the 4 dates.
