Funding to speed up the work to create a new bridge and bypass at Kelham has been made available to Nottinghamshire County Council.
Midlands Connect has given the council up to £50,000 towards the A617 bypass scheme at Kelham.
The grant will bring forward additional investigation work on the feasibility of a new bypass, potentially paving the way to later seeking government support if viable options can be found.
