Main roads in Wellingborough town centre to close for urgent repairs

Drivers face disruption with the closure of a main route through Wellingborough town centre next week.

Road closures will be in place in Sheep Street and Silver Street from Tuesday (April 2).

Information published about the closure says the roads will be closed for seven days from April 2 for ‘urgent carriageway repairs.’

It says the essential maintenance works are to improve the condition and structural stability of the carriageway and improve safety.

The works will include removal of blocks, carriageway resurfacing, ironwork adjustments and renewal of road markings.

Works will be carried out using a full road closure between the junctions for Commercial Way and Oxford Street.

A diversion will be in place while the work is carried out, with drivers advised to allow extra time for their journey.
