A highways spokesman said: “This is necessary to improved the existing road surface and prepare for surface dressing taking place at a later date.”

The road will be temporarily closed between 9am and 4pm to through traffic for the duration of the works.

The spokesman added: “While works are in progress access to properties and businesses will be available but controlled by staff on site.
