MOTORISTS using the roundabout at junction 25 of the M1 near Long Eaton are being advised to allow extra time for their journeys due to one set of traffic signals at the roundabout being out of order.

As a result of an incident during the very early hours of Tuesday morning at the roundabout, traffic signals, cabling and the control box were damaged.  Traffic continuing along the M1 is not affected

The Highways Agency and its contractor, A-one+, are working hard to repair the damage caused by the incident. Subject to the availability of a new control box, the repairs are expected to be completed by Wednesday 19 September.

Mark Clough, Highways Agency Manager said: "Motorists using the roundabout at junction 25 of the M1 should leave extra time for their journey as the roads at that location could be busy, particularly during peak times.

"We will use temporary traffic signals on some approaches to the roundabout while the repairs are being completed.

"Care should be taken by drivers whilst the temporary signals are in-place, as the layout and operation will be slightly different to what they might be used to.

"Safety is our top priority so we will continue to monitor the site closely until the necessary repairs have been completed."

    “"Subject to the availability of a new control box"

    No spares then?”
