A road will be closed this summer for major resurfacing works.

Lombard Road in Abingdon, between East St Helen Street and West St Helen Street, will be shut from July 3 to July 7 to allow Oxfordshire County Council to carry out footway slurry works.

The closure is being put in place in the interests of 'public safety'.

In a social media post, Abingdon-on-Thames Town Council said: "A Temporary Traffic Regulation Notice is being made to implement the temporary closure and restriction and will operate on the days shown above."

Access will be maintained for emergency service vehicles and for those frontages within the closure area, subject to the progress of the works and liaison with the works supervisor.

For more information about the works, contact Tim Belton at Oxfordshire County Council on 07812 237621.
