Old Cross
I am sure you have all seen the signs but just to bring to your attention Old Cross to Hartham Lane will be closed from 7pm Friday to 6am Monday (I think) I hope all Justins customers know tyhe bypass or the rat run, getting to Bengeo is going to be fun! The offical alternative route is the via ththe A10 so to go from The Hillside to Castle Hall you have to go via Ware!

I can confirm that is was indeed "fun" over the weekend (I wasn't there on Friday) with solid traffic in all directions at times with much beeping of horns and shaking of fists!

I took the most ridiculous detour to avoid this - Hatfield to Fanshawe Street via the A10, A602 and B158! Hearing your comments, I'm glad I did [8D]

In case of future OC blockages, can I recommend going north along the B119, turn off at Waterford towards Bushmills, then up Sacombe Rd. and into Bengeo by the school in order to avoid the rat run/fight club?

Trouble is that now you have publicised it ten everybody will use it as a rat run.

I messed up the directions. It's either via Bullsmills or Waterford through Vicarage Rd. I doubt many people will use it as (a) not manhy read these forums and (b) it's quite a bit further round for anyone not coming from Stevenage/Watton (plus Vicarage Rd is a bit narrow & windy). Also anyone with a map can work it oput for themselves.
Anyway, why should I mind if it reduces the traffic past my front door? [}:)] [;)]

Vicarage Road is a great rat run, except that it is a single track road, and if people try to use it in both directions it will be worse than Bengeo!!!
