Universal Studios Bedford: Road at Stewartby to temporarily shut for level crossing upgrade

From now right up until May 22, Universal will be carrying out improvements to the existing railway level crossing and two access points off Broadmead Road which go into its development site.

And from April 20 to May 22, Broadmead Road from the Woburn Road junction to Hansons Reach roundabout will be temporarily closed – with temporary traffic lights at the Woburn Road junction.

During the closure, vehicles and the number 68 bus will follow a diversion along Green Lane immediately to the south of Stewartby.

Also, from 8pm on Friday, May 15 up until 5am on Monday, May 18, Woburn Road will be closed but there’ll be diversions in place.

During these roadworks, the speed limit along Broadmead Road will be reduced to 30mph.
