Universal Great Britain - Construction Updates

[pbin]

The A428 Black Cat Roundabout to Caxton Gibbet Dual Carriage way reached its half-way point of construction last month and remains on-budget and on-time to open in spring 2027 (a rarity for the UK…). It is also going to be numbered the A421 up to the A14/M11 junction.

On another forum focused on roads, I saw that the Bedford southern bypass (A421 between the A6 and A600) is expected to have over 95,000 vehicles per day travelling it by 2040, which is well within 3-lane motorway territory.

With Universal, that could be well over 100,000 vehicles per day. I’ll be writing a letter to the Bedford MP asking about what plans there are to reinforce the road infrastructure around the area (along with inquiries about active travel plans) as I see this is a valid concern, especially after the Marston Moretaine flooding earlier this year.

I think the only plans they have are Universals plans to be fair. Good luck with the letter.
