Roadworks Bring Misery For Drivers

Drivers are facing delays on one of the main routes in and out of Market Harborough due to two sets of roadworks.

Work has started today on highway improvements outside the new Aldi store being built on Rockingham Road, while Severn Trent Water is carrying out work at the St Mary’s Road/Kettering Road and Clarence Street.
