    Getting ready to start concrete repairs - May 2026

    The first phase of work will start on Dennis Roundabout in early May to repair concrete to both bridges. 

    To allow access to all areas requiring repairs, scaffolding will be installed on the verges of the roundabout beneath the bridges.

    To provide sufficient working space and to protect both the scaffolding and road users, a lane closure will be required on the west side of the roundabout for the duration of the works.

    Unfortunately, the pedestrian footpath at this location will also need to be closed while the works are underway, with a signed diversion via Wooden Bridge footbridge.

    There will be a series of overnight closures at the roundabout. The first set will be on the 

    Monday 11 to Friday 15 May - east side of Dennis roundabout

    Closed overnight. Also includes a closure of Worplesdon Road to Midleton Road:

    Between Monday 18 May and Friday 29 May -west side of Dennis roundabout

    Closed overnight. Also includes closures of 

    • Midleton Road from Woodbridge Meadows to Dennis Roundabout

    The A3 will remain open during these closures.

    The second phase of the works will be on the A3. This work will include:

    • refurbishing the bridge decks
    • repairing the concrete on the top of the bridges
    • re-waterproofing, and replacing bridge joints and barriers

    We'll also be resurfacing the A3 carriageway in both directions between Dennis roundabout and the Wooden Bridge footbridge to remove the bumps in the carriageway. 

    These works are due to start in June. To do them safely, we’ll require a combination of full weekend closures, overnight closures, and 24/7 narrow lanes on the A3.
