    We’re delighted to announce that the #A14C2H is open for traffic today, 8 months early! We’ll need some closures to do finishing works, to be advertised in advance. Work in Huntingdon continues until 2022. Please remember: only travel during lockdown for essential journeys.

    Remains of a woolly mammoth and a woolly rhino dating back to the last ice age were found on the #A14C2H project last week, while excavating for construction materials near Fenstanton. The finds are at least 130,000 years old and were found by what was once an ancient river.

    We're delighted to confirm that we will be opening the brand new, 12-mile Huntingdon bypass to traffic this December, a full year earlier than originally planned. The rest of the #A14C2H is on course to open by the end of 2020 as planned.

    Thanks for your patience while we installed the new #BarHillBridges this weekend. The road opened 18 hours ahead of schedule and if you’re using the A14 today, you’ll drive under the two new bridges. Watch this space for a time-lapse video in the next couple of days.

    This time-lapse video shows the demolition of the old A14 Bar Hill bridge (J29), overnight on 21-22 June, as part of the #A14C2H scheme. The work was completed 24 hours early, with the A14 reopened by 5am on 23 June. One of the 2 new bridges opened 2 weeks ago.

    Can you picture the people going up and down its steps to get to the water at the bottom of the well? The ladder was found on the very last week of excavations at Field 44, an amazing way to conclude our work here. #A428BlackCat #FindsFriday
