Emergency repairs on A6 Rothwell and Desborough by-pass progressing.

Available for over a year

The A6 Rothwell and Desborough by-pass remains closed, whilst emergency repairs are carried out. In mid-January a routine inspection found that gaps had opened up under the tarmac on either side of a bridge where the road crosses over the River Ise. The A6 was immediately closed, whilst engineers worked out how to put the problem right - and since then work has been proceeding a-pace. Rebecca Miller from Northamptonshire Highways joined Stuart in the studio for an update.
