Works are taking place to install a new road safety scheme on a busy road in Bletchley.
Following a public consultation, Milton Keynes City Council is now installing a traffic light system, pedestrian island, new signs and road markings to improve safety on a busy stretch of road.
The work is currently taking place on the V4 Watling Street between the H8 and H10 at Granby.
A proposed 40mph speed limit is also being put in place by the council.
Closures are in place each day between 9.30am and 4.30pm until 31st October.
"This stretch of the V4 Watling Street has been identified after a history of collisions with a high number at the junction of Whaddon Way," a council spokesperson said.
"The aim of the scheme is to provide a safer environment for vehicles travelling on the V4 Watling Street, and to provide safer exit from Whaddon Way. The scheme will also improve the current crossing and overall facilities for pedestrians and cyclists using the V4."
