Residents are being warned as overnight roadworks in April are set to disrupt a major route to Southampton's main train station.

Southampton City Council has confirmed that part of Blechynden Terrace will be worked on for five nights as part of carriageway paving works.

Repairs are planned to begin at 8pm on April 7 and will finish by 6am.

During this period, temporary traffic lights will be in place to ensure access to local businesses, homes, and Southampton Central Station.

However, drivers are still warned they should prepare for potential delays due to the restricted road capacity.

The dates for the works are subject to changes, depending on the weather.

Residents close to the road have been advised they may experience short-term disturbances such as "flashing lights and reversing sirens".

Prior to works beginning, "no-waiting" cones may also be used, and if vehicles are parked in marked areas then they may have to be removed if they block access for contractors.
