Bridge Works Completion Delayed Again

The completion of work to upgrade the railway bridge between Market Harborough and Great Bowden Road is facing another delay.

It means traffic lights – that were due to be removed yesterday – will now remain in place for another two weeks – until May 12th.

Network Rail says ‘unexpected ground conditions’ are to blame and have once again apologised for the inconvenience.

The work – part of the Line Speed Improvement Project – began in January and was due to be completed by the start of March before the first delay was announced.
