Road closed near Wyboston following car collision

The A428 near Wyboston is currently closed in both directions for emergency repairs to the River Ouse Crossing.

Significant damage was caused to the bridge during an incident on Sunday night involving two cars and over 300 metres of concrete blocks will need to be installed along the parapet to ensure the structure remains safe for road users.

Installation of the concrete blocks will take between three to four hours and it is expected the road will be reopened this afternoon.
