Karen Cassar, Assistant Director Highways, said: "Wet weather over recent weeks has slightly delayed the completion of our improvement works at Gunby Roundabout.
"As a result, we'll be returning on Monday 11 November and expect to have everything complete by 6am on Saturday 23 November. However, this is reliant on suitable weather during mid-November.
"We'll be doing everything we can to keep disruption to a minimum, including maintaining access for residents, businesses and emergency vehicles at all times.
"We apologise for any inconvenience this causes and want to thank everyone for their continued patience."
Original: The work will begin on Monday 9 September for eight weeks, subject to suitable weather conditions.
In addition to the roundabout improvements, a 1km stretch of the eastbound A158 will also undergo work.
The works will be carried out in phases, with closures in place from 7pm to 6am, Monday to Friday.
In addition to road closures at various points of the roundabout during the works, lane closures will also be in place on the dualled sections of A158.
Access for emergency vehicles, residents and businesses will be maintained at all times, as far reasonably practicable.
Karen Cassar, assistant director highways, said: "Gunby is an essential part of the route to Skegness and the county's coast from the west.
"Over the years, the condition of the road surface at each of its legs has considerably deteriorated. So, once the summer holidays are over, we'll be rebuilding each leg of the roundabout so that people's journeys are smoother and safer.
"These works will inevitably cause some disruption, but we'll be doing everything we can to keep it to a minimum, including working overnight so that people using the roundabout in the day aren't affected.
"We ask for your continued patience while they are carried out."
