Road Closure: LEIGH ROAD — Southampton

Motorists in the Southampton area are being advised of upcoming roadworks on Leigh Road in Chandler's Ford, which will take place from 21:00 on 9 November 2026 to 06:00 on 14 November 2026. The roadworks, being carried out by Hampshire County Council, are expected to cause medium-severity disruptions to traffic in the area. Drivers who regularly use Leigh Road should plan their journeys in advance and consider using alternative routes to avoid potential delays.

The roadworks are part of Hampshire County Council's ongoing maintenance programme, aimed at ensuring the county's roads remain safe and well-maintained. While the works are taking place, drivers may experience slower traffic speeds and potential queues, particularly during peak hours. To minimise the impact of the disruption, drivers are advised to check traffic apps and websites for up-to-date information on traffic conditions before setting out on their journeys.

Hampshire County Council has planned the roadworks to take place overnight, when traffic volumes are lower, in an effort to reduce the impact on motorists. However, drivers who need to use Leigh Road during this time should be aware of the potential for delays and plan their journeys accordingly. Alternative routes are available, and drivers are advised to use these where possible to avoid the area altogether. By taking a few extra minutes to plan their journey in advance, drivers can help to reduce congestion and minimise the impact of the roadworks.

The council's highway maintenance programme is designed to ensure that the county's roads remain safe and well-maintained, and that disruptions to traffic are kept to a minimum.
