A52 Nottingham Knight – severe delays warning continues

The most significant continuing roadworks disruption is around Nottingham Knight Roundabout.

The warning was introduced on 4 November and remains listed in NCT’s current service information.

The operator says queuing and displaced traffic are affecting journeys across the southern part of Nottingham.

The restrictions are particularly relevant to commuters travelling between Ruddington, West Bridgford, Gamston, Clifton and Nottingham city centre.

This is a continuing operator warning rather than a measurement of individual journey delays at 06:10. NCTX

A52 Wheatcroft – lane restrictions continue

The National Highways improvement programme continues around Wheatcroft Roundabout.

Lane restrictions and reduced speed limits remain associated with the works.

National Highways has previously explained that the current programme includes utility diversions ahead of the main junction improvements.

Further work is expected around Nottingham Knight in January 2027.

National Highways-derived information also lists continuing eastbound lane restrictions on the A52 towards Nottingham, with some restrictions scheduled until 30 November.

West Bridgford – Abbey Road diversion reaches scheduled final day

Today is the advertised final day of the Abbey Road diversion affecting NCT Green 12, 12C and 12E.

The operator confirms that buses are continuing along Davies Road rather than following their normal route through Abbey Road.

The diversion began on Tuesday 3 November.

Affected stops include Abbey Road at Davies Road, Violet Road and Cyril Road on Radcliffe Road.

The closure was originally associated with a gas leak and has also affected trentbarton services travelling towards Cotgrave, Radcliffe-on-Trent and Bingham.

NCT’s current notice gives Tuesday 10 November as the final scheduled day.

The actual reopening time has not been confirmed.
