Highways England has completed improvements along the A14 in Cambridgeshire.

The work involved adding a third lane in both directions between junctions 31 and 32.

Improvements were also carried out on the westbound access roads to the M11 and A14 at the Girton interchange.

Costain was the contractor on the project and Amey was the supervisor.

The A14 improvements are part of a £317m pinch point programme to improve over 100 congestion spots nationwide.

The upgrades on the A14 will help support the creation of 582 jobs and 1,480 new homes by 2020.

Construction began last April and was completed on 13 September.

Service Delivery Team Leader, Aran Nugent, said Highways England will return later in the year to complete outstanding landscaping works over a two week period.
