NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that National
Highways Limited(a) intends to make an
Order on the A1 Trunk Road in the City of Peterborough, to allow for traffic to travel in safety during the Burghley Horse Trials.
The traffic safety measures would require slip road closures between 1pm and 8pm from Thursday 3 September 2026 to Sunday 6 September 2026.
The effect of the Order would be to close the A1 northbound and southbound exit slip roads leading to the B1081 London Road, at Carpenter’s Lodge Junction.
The slip road closures would only be implemented to relieve traffic flow on the A1 and would be monitored and removed as soon as traffic flows reach an acceptable level. Northbound traffic wishing to use the slip road would continue north to exit the A1 at its junction with the A606 and then continue their journey using the A6121. Southbound traffic would be diverted via The Green Drift and the B1443. When traffic volumes are high, nearside lane closures would be in operation to allow unrestricted access for traffic wishing to join the A1.
Any vehicle being used for police, fire and rescue authority, ambulance and traffic officer purposes would be exempt from the closures.
The slip road closures and diversion routes would be clearly signposted throughout the event.
The Order would come into force on 31 August 2026 and may continue in force for a maximum duration of eighteen months or until the event detailed above has ended, whichever is the earlier.
