There will be lane and road closures in place in Central Milton Keynes while traffic lights are installed at a busy junction - a project that will take around five months to complete.
Milton Keynes Council has said that work will soon begin to create a new, signalised junction at Avebury Boulevard & Grafton Street.
This area, located near Argos and the current COVID-19 test centre, is often congested during rush hour and has seen a number of road traffic accidents in recent years.
Next month, in June, work will begin to install traffic lights at this junction to "help improve traffic flow and improve road safety".
The scheme will also provide a new lane on Grafton Gate (northbound) to help ease congestion at the South Grafton roundabout.
Road works will last for around five months, up until late November, and road closures are to be expected.
The particular section of the road in question will be closed for the duration of the works, and surrounding roads may also be impacted.
Milton Keynes Council says that access to adjacent properties will be maintained as much as possible.
A spokesperson for the local authority said: "Signage will be in place to advise of any lane closures and for any diversion routes for vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians. Ringway staff will also be on-site to assist."
