The long awaited resolution to several decades of frustration for motorists travelling along the A30 across Bodmin Moor will soon be coming to an end, contractors Kier have confirmed.

In a progress meeting with Cornwall Council, the construction firm confirmed that the £59m contract is due to be completed by July 13. This date reflects when the site will be cleared of any construction activity – for example, the removal of temporary signage and site offices. Completion of the four lanes is expected to be before this date – and the timing of this is being closely monitored by the Council.
