More than 60 roads will be forced shut in Cambridgeshire over the coming months as part of a “significant maintenance programme” across the county.

The £1million road resurfacing project begins in Wisbech on Monday (March 14) and is scheduled to finish in Waterbeach on Friday, May 13.

Councillor Peter McDonald, chair of Cambridgeshire County Council’s highways and transport committee, said: “It is so important that roads across the county are well maintained, ensuring safety for all road users across Cambridgeshire.

“This programme is a vital part of this and I am pleased such a large-scale project will be carried out this spring.”

Micro Asphalt is a thin pre-mixed material which will be laid over the road surface to prevent damage, improve safety and increase the lifespan of the roads.

"The process is weather dependent and requires the road surface to be dry. As a result, planned dates for the work may change at short notice," said a council spokesperson.

“All roads are required to be closed in order for these works to be carried out, and where possible, a signed diversion route will be in place.

“Advanced warning signs will be put out a minimum of 14 days before the works start.

“Access to and from properties will be possible during throughout the scheme.

“This may be affected by the type of work carried out at the time and so local residents will receive a leaflet with more information and are encouraged to speak to teams onsite if they have any questions.

“Vehicles are asked not to park on the road during these works.”
