This will help them to plan their journeys in advance and avoid any unnecessary delays. The council recommends using the A264 or A22 as alternative routes, depending on the direction of travel.

While the road closure is expected to cause some disruption, the council has assured that the works are necessary to ensure the safety and maintenance of the road. The minor works are expected to improve the overall condition of the road and reduce the risk of future accidents.

Motorists who rely on the route for their daily commute or regular journeys should allow extra time for their journeys to account for any potential delays. It is also recommended that drivers consider carpooling or using public transport to reduce the number of vehicles on the road and alleviate congestion.

The council has implemented the necessary traffic management measures to ensure the safe passage of pedestrians and emergency services during the roadworks. However, motorists are advised to be cautious and follow all traffic signs and directions to avoid any potential hazards.
