In December, Richard attended ceremony to mark the formal start of works on the A428 Black Cat to Caxton Gibbet improvement scheme with Bedford Mayor Tom Wootton and Nicola Bell, Chris Taylor and Lee Galloway of National Highways.

Richard Fuller MP said:

Expected to be open to traffic in 2027, this major development of the roundabout with a new 10-mile dual carriageway and a number of junction improvements will finally put to an end the interminable traffic jams that are such a feature of Black Cat at present.

Richard has been working with National Highways and affected residents to ensure disruption is kept at a minimum while the work is being undertaken. More information on the planned works can be followed by visiting: https://nationalhighways.co.uk/our-roads/a428-black-cat-to-caxton-gibbet/
