A30 dual carriageway in Cornwall opens after four-year upgrade
A new dual carriageway on a stretch of the A30 in Cornwall has opened after a four year project.
Construction work for the £330m scheme between Chiverton Cross and Carland Cross roundabouts started in 2020.
Completion of the dualling works was delayed several times and in March the end date was pushed back a further three months.
National Highways said there was still work to do on some local roads, footpaths and cycle paths to complete the project.
The organisation said in order to complete the work before the school summer holidays, it would be implementing some local road closures until 12 July.
It said the reason for the delay was due to “significant challenges” the project had faced around bad weather and construction issues.
