Residents are being advised on the next planned road closures for the Queen Eleanor Interchange improvement works as work progresses on this scheme to ease congestion in the area.

The next closures will be overnight between 8pm and 6am on the following dates:

Western side

• Road closure will be in place from 30 July until 8 August (re-opening the morning of 9 August) 
  During this period a one-night closure will also occur on the eastern side on Friday, 1 August   
• The western end of the roundabout will be closed on the 30 July. This will affect London Road, Mere Way and A45 entry and exit slips.  

Eastern side  

• Road closure will be in place from the 11 to 15 August (re-opening the morning of 16 August)
• Closures also in place from 18 to 20 August (reopening morning of 21 August)
• This will affect Hardingstone Lane, Newport Pagnell Road, and A45 entry and exit slips (southbound).  

The next phase of the project will involve excavations from the central roundabout to the outer edge of the road, to install drainage systems and traffic signal connections.

Residents and businesses will have access to their properties at all times, however bus stops on A45 slip road and nearest the roundabout on London Road and Newport Pagnell Road are suspended for the duration of this works and passengers are asked to use alternative bus stops during this time.For more information on these works and other major highways projects, visit Major highways projects | West Northamptonshire Council
