Overnight roadworks on a busy Weymouth road have started.

Radipole Lane in Weymouth will close overnight between 8pm and 6am until Saturday, February 25.

The temporary road closure on Radipole Lane will be between its junction with Hereford Road and its junction with Chickerell Road and is to allow for Dorset Council to carry out essential maintenance works on the road. 

A temporary clearway will be imposed on Radipole Lane between its junction with Hereford Road and its junction with Chickerell Road to prevent parking/stopping. 

A signed diversion route will be put in place to enable traffic to travel around the closed sections. 

For further information about the work being undertaken, contact Dorset Council on 01305 228100.
