The roadworks have caused minimal disruption during half term but delays are expected when schools return on Monday, February 19.

The works are part of a pedestrian crossing point improvement scheme with new dropped kerbing, tactile paving and reflective bollards being installed.

The road is closed from its junction with Twyford High Street to Norris’s Bridge.
