A stretch of the A3 in Surrey is to be closed for the installation of a new footbridge.
National Highways said the road will be closed between Junction 10 and the Painshill roundabout from 21:00 BST on Friday and 06:00 on Monday.
The works will see the 58 metre long Redhill Footbridge installed and form part of the M25 Junction 10 improvements.
"Although we are installing a footbridge named after the east Surrey town, the good people of Redhill need not worry, the closure is not near you," a National Highways spokesperson said.
The footbridge will be delivered to the site in four sections in four different lorries on Friday night.
On Saturday, the four sections will be bolted together and then lifted into place on Sunday morning.
Redhill Footbridge is the last one of the eight bridges to be built as part of a scheme, National Highways said.
The bridge was built in Hythe, Kent, by NuSteel.
