If you’re heading out to Central Beds, be warned as part of Marston Road, in Lidlington, will be temporarily closed yet again.

Well, it looks like it’s going to temporarily close again next month (September).

This time it’s to clear vegetation and for GPR surveys (a ground penetrating radar survey uses high-frequency radio waves to create an X-ray of the subsurface).

The closure order affects 20m either side of the level crossing and the works will run from September 5 to 25 between 9am and 3pm every day.

The alternative route is via Marston Road, The Lane, Church Street, Station Road, Sheep Tick End, Bedford Road, Woburn Road, Beancroft Road, Bedford Road, Station Road, Marston Road and vice versa.
