A FURTHER series of overnight road closures are set to take place in the latest phase of work to upgrade Darlington's inner ring road.

St Cuthbert's Way will be closed to traffic between 9pm and 6am between Wednesday, November 12, and Friday, November 14 and again on Monday and Tuesday, November 13 and 14.

The closures will allow surfacing work on parts of the carriageway to be carried out.

Signed diversions will be in place but Darlington Borough Council has advised motorists to find an alternative route avoiding the area during the closures if possible.
