Two major Southampton roads are set to be hit by road works next month and drivers are being warned ahead of the closure.

The busy Mountbatten Way in Southampton faces road works in September, which also includes part of Millbrook Road West.

Starting on Monday, September 9, Mountbatten Way is set to be under the temporary lane restriction for 12 days, ending on Friday, September 20.

The works are only due to take place between the hours of 7pm and 6am.

Southampton City Council’s highway teams will be undertaking road works on the busy road and delays are expected to build as a result of the lane restrictions.

This comes as the Redbridge Causeway has been hit with roadworks this week.
