Diversion route Tower Lane HarmstonCllr Richard Davies, executive member for highway, said: "Not only will we be fully rebuilding sections of the B1178 White Lane and Tower Lane, but we'll also be refurbishing the traffic signals at and resurfacing sections of its crossroads with the A607.
"With the road closed, we've also worked closely with Anglian Water to arrange for them to take advantage of our road closure to build a new, underground water main crossing, which will mean less disruption in the future.
"We intend to do everything we can to minimise disruption, including carrying the works out as efficiently as possible with a view to hopefully finishing up early. But this will be purely down to weather and how things progress on site once we start.
"Once complete, these improvements will make travelling in and around Harmston safer and more comfortable for all road users."
