Overnight A30 closures for bridge inspections

A major £330m upgrade on the A30 was completed by National Highways in June

Part of the A30 will be closed in Cornwall for two nights while bridge inspections are carried out.

Cornwall Council said the eastbound carriageway would be shut from 20:00 BST on Wednesday and Thursday between the Chiverton junction and Carland Cross with diversions via the A3075, B3285 and B3288.

The A30 is set to reopen at 06:00 the following morning on both days, the council added.

In June, a major upgrade costing £330m was completed by National Highways to dual the carriageway between Chiverton and Carland Cross after four years of work.

The council added a single lane closure would also be in place on the westbound carriageway near Tolgroggan Bridge at the same times on both days.
