Written Question
A14: Road Works
Monday 15th October 2018

Asked by: Jonathan Djanogly (Conservative - Huntingdon)

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, pursuant to the Answer of 11 September 2018 to Question 169126 on A14: road works, what estimate he has made of the delay to work on that road as a result of the archaeological work; and what estimate he has made of the cost of that delay.

Answered by Jesse Norman

The A14 Cambridge to Huntingdon scheme is on budget and on target to open to traffic by 2020/21 as planned.

Highways England have encountered some challenges with the archaeology work schedule, but they have been able to work flexibly to ensure there has not been an impact on the construction programme. Highways England confirm this will not have an impact on the overall scheme budget and will be able to publish final costs once the scheme has completed.
