National Highways has made some changes to the overnight closures on the A30 around Carland Cross this week.

Instead of full closures, there will be traffic lights in place so that residents can access the A39 via the B3285 - and vice versa - using the Carland Cross roundabouts.

This allows for the Cornwall Highways work further south on the A39.

During these overnight closures:

  • The eastbound slip road from the A39 to the A30 will be OPEN
  • However, the westbound slip road from the A30 to the A39 will be CLOSED

The A30 dual carriageway will be open as normal during these closures.

Cornwall Council’s highways team will also be carrying out routine maintenance work overnight along the A39 this week, from Trispen (at the turning to the community centre) to Union Hill, Truro, until this Friday, October 25.

The council said these works will take place between 8pm and 7am to align with the National Highways works.

Additional work will be carried out by National Highways on other sections of the A30 this week.
