Drivers can expect more than a month of delays and diversions when a busy major road shuts for major improvement works next month.
National Highways is resurfacing the A19 between Holystone and Killingworth for what it calls “essential improvements”, with work starting on Monday (November 7).
It means the carriageway will be shut in both directions from 9pm until 6am on weekdays until mid-December, with the chance of occasional Sunday work if the project is running behind schedule.
