Langstone Road closure: Here is the 1.5-mile diversion drivers will face to get to and from Hayling Island
HAMPSHIRE County Council has outlined the diversion route set to be put in place when the main road to Hayling Island is closed for resurfacing work.
Drivers will face three weeks of temporary traffic measures as maintenance is carried out on Langstone Road from today.
The road will be fully closed for three nights on Monday, March 4, Tuesday, March 5 and Thursday, March 7 and temporary traffic lights will be put up for the rest of the work.
In what the council has called a ‘short diversion’, motorists travelling to and from Hayling Island will have to go a mile-and-a-half out of their way while Langstone Road is closed.
This seven-minute journey, pictured, will take them past Langstone Technology Park, Brookside Road, Brockhampton Road and Langstone Gate to get to Park Road North.
Langstone Road is also underwent minor carriageway repairs last week.
The resurfacing work, which is part of the council’s multi-million-pound Operation Resilience, will all be carried out between the hours of 9pm and 6am.
