Overnight closures on A303 at Winterbourne Stoke from next week
National Highways is carrying out resurfacing work
The A303 at Winterbourne Stoke will face overnight road closures from next week (Monday 31st March) to allow for resurfacing.
National Highways is working on a three mile stretch from Longbarrow roundabout through to the start of the dual carriageway, west of Winterbourne Stoke.
The road closures will be in place on weeknights only, from 8.00pm until 6.00am, through until May 2nd.
There'll be a pause over the Easter weekend (17th to 21st April), and a full weekend closure from 9.00pm on Friday 25th April to 6.00am on Monday 28th - between Longbarrow and the Deptford interchange.
A diversion route will be set up throughout - taking light vehicles going eastbound onto the A36 to Wilton and back up the A360.
For HGVs going eastbound, they'll be asked to go through Chitterne and Shrewton on the B390.
Access for local traffic will be maintained.
Project Manager Tracey Matthews said: “The work follows carriageway improvement work to the east of Longbarrow roundabout earlier in the year.
“The resurfacing scheme will ultimately bring benefits for local residents and the travelling public and, although we appreciate roadworks can be frustrating, we’re keeping the closures to an absolute minimum and we thank all drivers in advance for their co-operation and patience while we carry out these essential works.”
