Dear Editor
I am writing to express my concerns ahead of the imminent opening of the long-delayed A51 Reaseheath bypass road.
After years of postponements, the road is now expected to open in June 2026 — more than four years later than originally planned, with the scheme initially due for completion in February 2022.
It has been a Nantwich road project dogged with delays and problems.
Now it seems the latest setback to the new A51 Reaseheath bypass is the wrong size road sign!

Dear Editor,
I am writing as a deeply concerned member of the public regarding the continued and extraordinary delay to the A51 Reaseheath spine road — the new north–south bypass intended to serve the Kingsbourne development in Nantwich and connect the A51, B5074, Nantwich Bypass and Barony Road near Reaseheath College.
Highways bosses at Cheshire East Council have laid the blame for the A51 Reaseheath bypass delay firmly at the developers’ door.
In a statement finally issued today – a week after Nantwich News contacted the council – they said delays were down to a lack of “highways agreements” to allow the road to be adopted.
Crewe and Nantwich MP Connor Naismith says he has “demanded” an explanation for why the A51 Reaseheath bypass opening has been delayed yet again.
We revealed earlier this week how the long-awaited route may now not be open until at least June 2026.
The new Reaseheath bypass has again been delayed and will not be open until at least June 2026, it emerged today.
And those behind the construction, a consortium of Kingsbourne housing developers, laid the blame for the delay at the door of Cheshire East Council highways.
