New A30
![Work on the new section of the A30 between Chiverton Cross and Carland Cross](https://i2-prod.cornwalllive.com/incoming/article6126546.ece/ALTERNATES/s615b/0_JR_DCM040919newa30_03.jpg)
Works to create a new dual carriageway for the constantly congested section of the A30 between Chiverton Cross and Carland Cross are well underway. The dualling project is estimated to cost at least £290m and will see the current A30 downgraded to a local road. The new road would be located south of the current one.
What the road scheme includes:
- A new 8.7-mile road
- A 70mph high-quality dual carriageway
- A two-level junction at Chiverton Cross and a new roundabout to ensure the free flow of traffic on the A30
- A new partial junction at Chybucca built on two levels with west-facing slip roads to provide access on to the dual carriageway from local routes
- New bridges at Tolgroggan Farm, Pennycomequick Lane and over the Allet to Tresawsen Road to provide local access
- A two-level junction at Carland Cross with a new roundabout north of the dual carriageway and re-using the existing roundabout to the south
- Keeping the existing A30 as a local route with new sections where necessary to provide continuity and connectivity for local communities
What to expect
A number of unclassified roads will be closed in areas alongside the existing A30 carriageway, to allow for clearance and construction work, and all residents and businesses directly affected have been informed. There will also be temporary speed limits until 2023, when the works will be completed.
The £330 million upgrade is scheduled to be open to traffic in winter 2023 and further information on environmental mitigation and other details can be seen here. The cost of developing the scheme is being partly funded by an £8 million contribution from the European Regional Development Fund, with an additional £12 million for the construction phase. The remainder of the cost of developing and delivering the scheme is being funded by central Government.
