The road will be closed westbound on Monday and Tuesday, between the Dobbies and Woodcote roundabouts, to allow for new road markings to be laid.

On January 8, 9 and 10, the A5 eastbound between the Dobbies and Woodcote roundabouts will be closed to complete the road markings. The work, which will be carried out between 8pm and 6am, will allow for the creation of an extra lane on the south of the roundabout.

Roundabout road markings will also be refreshed.

During the work motorists will be able to take a 10-mile diversion from the Edgebold roundabout on the A488 and the B4386.
