MAJOR disruption is expected as a month of roadworks is set to take place at the Tollbar roundabout.
Lane one will be closed from Monday, June 3 to Friday, June 28 on the busy route into the city.
It will affect motorists travelling on the A46 Coventry Eastern Bypass to the A45 Stonebridge Highway under the Tollbar roundabout.
Highways England says it will be carrying out minor drainage repairs on the brickwork of the west bridge of the Tollbar underpass.
It adds that to carry out this work safely, there will be two full overnight westbound carriageway closures.
The westbound carriageway will be closed for certain hours on Sunday, June 2 from midnight, and any unfinished work could resume the following night.
Another overnight closure of same carriageway will take place in June 28 from midnight to 6am – which again could spill into the next night if work is not completed.
The diversion on both nights will be to go up and round the roundabout rather than under the bridge.
Road safety campaigner Richard Heneghan tweeted: “So the work done during the major disruptions to build this roundabout approach only a short while ago…was not done correctly? Correct.
“Now more disruptions as a result of shoddy work.”
