Road to close as resurfacing work begins

Spinney Road will be reopen in July once works are completed

A residential road will be closed during the day for three weeks while resurfacing work is carried out.

Staffordshire County Council's highways teams are carrying out significant works at Burntwood's Spinney Lane, between Bells Lane and Shelley Road.

The £350,000 project will also include cleaning of all drainage systems, replacing damaged kerbs and ironwork where necessary and the replacement of road markings.

Road closures will be in place each day between 07:30 and 17:30 BST, but could be lifted earlier - and vehicle access to homes will be restricted during the works.

A diversion route will be clearly signposted on site.

Daniel Cecil from Staffordshire County Council said workers would try to keep disruption to a minimum.

"As we move into summer our highways crews are making the most of the good weather to repair as many roads as possible," he added.

"Spinney Lane is in poor condition, and this programme will give it a smoother road surface that should last for years to come."
