The road will close at 8.30pm on Friday, October 2 and reopen at 6am on Monday, October 5.

"The weekend road closure is required to undertake work that cannot be safely completed whilst the road is open or under traffic management," construction firm Costain said, adding: "We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause."
Costain will provide a minibus service to replace the Stagecoach number three service on Saturday.
The minibus timetable will operate as normal but there will be significantly reduced seating capacity and masks or face coverings must be worn, in line with the Welsh Government public health rules for Covid-19.
