National Highways says the motorway bridge defects did not pose an immediate safety risk.

National Highways predicted the cost would have "significantly exceeded" £500m, the government says.

A man and a woman, both in their 80s, die after separate incidents on the A1(M) on 2 January.

Martin Beal says National Highways still owes him money for the purchase of his farmhouse.

The government says the benefits were limited but campaigners say cancelling is public money wasted.

A stretch of the A1 between South Witham and Little Ponton will be resurfaced, National Highways says.

The seven-month-old died in hospital after a car hit a tree near Grantham on Thursday night.

A woman also has injuries after the incident near junction nine.
