Road remains closed for second week following burst water pipe

Wednesday, 24 August 2022 15:50

Multiple burst water mains have lead to a section of Bletcham Way near Asda and Ikea in Milton Keynes closed for a second week.

The closure between the Asda entrance and the junction with Watling Street/Grafton Street heading out of Bletchley, has been closed since Saturday August 13th.

Motorists heading into Bletchley are unaffected as the closure is only in one direction, leading to motorists turning at the Asda junction.

All businesses in the area are open as normal.

Anglian Water have not reported any disruption to water supplies for local residents in the surrounding areas.
