To help those across the country and in Erewash make the Christmas getaway easier, the Government are lifting 98 per cent of roadworks on motorways and major A-roads until 2 January 2024.
Notable routes to benefit from roadworks being lifted for the festive period includes:
- The A1 from A47 Wansford to Stibbington (near Peterborough) with five miles of roadworks lifted
- The M1 between junctions 21 to 22 (near Leicester) will have five miles of roadworks lifted to help motorists enjoy hassle-free journeys.
With Erewash and other parts of the East Midlands recently experiencing sub-zero temperatures, please remember to drive carefully and to the prevailing conditions.
