While the road is closed, carriageway repairs are due to be carried out, with work to include kerbing, sign posts and iron works. 

A two-mile diversion will be in place while the closure is in place, directing traffic down the B5069 and along the A5.

The full diversion map is available online at one.network, which will also provide any updates about the works.
