The road has been closed all week due to an Environment Agency flood warning, with some water from the River Nene spilling onto the surface following heavy rainfall.

The council tweeted this lunchtime: “A reminder that North Bank Road (alongside the River Nene, east of Peterborough and west of Dog-in-a-Doublet Sluice) is closed, and expected to remain so until the middle of next week at the earliest.”
