Long Lane, Kegworth

Post by JJF »

Can anyone in the vicinity of Kegworth tell me about access through Long lane?
I have occasionally cycled from the junction of Station Rd, along Long Lane, over the bridge on the A453 and eventually to Sawley Marina.
I have been told that construction work has given rise to No Access signs at that junction.
It's possible that I will be visiting that area soon and it would be useful to know if the barriers have been removed.
Thanks.

I have ridden through there today. The construction work at Kegworth end has finished. They are doing some work further along during the week and it says that it's closed, but it is possible to get through

Even when they were building the houses there was a well signposted diversion, though easier to find heading South. It's also become a bit of a rat run since they removed the bollards on the bridge. Between Shardlow and Kegworth I've been using this route, if nothing else it makes a change and you can gawp at the Amazon Fulfilment Centre
