A road in the New Forest will be closed temporarily for street light repairs.

Hampshire County Council has announced it will shut the Totton Bypass on June 16.

The full road closure will be between the road's junction with the A326 and the A35 roundabout.

The order was made under the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984.

Traffic Control 123 is expected to complete the work, which involves replacing a damaged street light, by the end of the day.

However, the order allows for the road to be closed for up to six months if needed.

The work will take place between 9.30am and 3.30pm.

An alternative route is available via the A326 Main Road.

The council said the closure is essential to ensure the safety of the workers.
