A key Wiltshire A-road being turned into a dual carriageway will close for resurfacing works.
The A350 at Chippenham is set to be hit by multiple nighttime closures during August, Wiltshire Council and contractor MJ Church has confirmed.
Overnight closures are currently scheduled to take place between Bumpers Farm Roundabout and Cepen Park South Roundabout throughout the first half of the month.
These are due to begin on Tuesday, August 4, when the closures on the western carriageway will begin and continue until Saturday, August 8.
The carriageway closures will be in place between the hours of 8pm and 6am.

This will be followed by a series of closures on the eastbound carriageway, during the same hours, starting on Monday, August 10, and ending on Saturday, August 15.
The resurfacing works appear to be being carried out as part of the £32 million project to turn the remaining sections of the A350 bypass at Chippenham into a dual carriageway.
The scheme also involves major upgrades to Bumpers Farm Roundabout, with the aim of increasing capacity, cutting congestion, and improving safety.
As well as focusing on the stretch of road between Bumpers Farm and Cepen Park South Roundabouts, the project will also impact the road from Chequers Roundabout to Lackham Roundabout.
