A3 roadworks set to last until end of the year

Drivers are being urged to plan ahead with lane restrictions at a key junction in Surrey set to be in place for the rest of the year from next month.

National Highways has warned "delays are likely" during repairs on the concrete structure of the A3 Dennis Roundabout, in Guildford, and the road between the roundabout and Woodenbridge footbridge.

The work is set to begin on 11 May, marking the first set of overnight closures until the project's completion.

Motorists have expressed their exasperation, with one Facebook user saying it "will cause chaos", and another saying the works were "hugely annoying but unfortunately, totally essential".

The first phase of work will focus on the roundabout to repair the concrete to both bridges.

National Highways said a lane closure would be required on the west side of the roundabout for the duration of the works.

The second phase of the works will be on the A3, and will include resurfacing part of the A3 carriageway, which is due to begin in June.

National Highways said the repair project would reduce the need for disruptive maintenance in future, and give drivers a safer, smoother journey.
