DRIVERS using a major road through Barnehurst face delays for the next two months.

Work starts this month on resurfacing Erith Road, between Barnehurst Road and Rydal Drive, and putting in place a local safety and parking scheme.

This includes changing the size and location of the roundabout at Barnehurst Road and providing two kerbs in Erith Road.

There will be traffic lights to control the single-lane traffic.

It will also be necessary to close the access from Erith road to Barnehurst Road, Merewood Road, Windermere Road and Grasmere Road, for short periods during the work.
