A Gloucestershire road is being closed for more than a week from today for resurfacing work.

A temporary traffic order is in place to close Withybridge Lane, near Uckington, Cheltenham, for approximately eight days (excluding weekends) between the hours of 7am to 7pm.

The planned start and end dates are currently today (Monday) until Wednesday, March 6, though this might be subject to change.

In a letter to residents, Gloucestershire Highways says: "Our resurfacing programme is dependent on several factors. It can be affected by things like; heavy rain, changes in temperatures and other weather events as well as plant breakdown and unforeseen technical issues that arise once work has begun.

"All this means scheme dates and details can change at short notice. We appreciate this is inconvenient, and we will keep our online schedule and our social media feeds updated with more details if changes happen."

The letter adds: "We will be resurfacing the road as part of our promise to invest a further £100 million in the county's road."
