Drivers in Bexley and the surrounding areas should be aware of road work scheduled for next week.

The closure is expected to cause only minor delays, estimated at less than 10 minutes.

According to the latest works schedule from National Highways, the A2 westbound at Old Bexley Lane will have one lane closed from 10pm on Monday, October 21, until 5am on Tuesday, October 22.

The closure is for horticultural works and may cause slight delays for drivers.

Horticultural works involve the maintenance and care of plants, trees, and landscaping along roadsides or public areas.

While this closure might affect journeys slightly, the disruption is expected to be minimal.

National Highways is responsible for maintaining motorways and major A-roads, so smaller road closures are not included in their reports.

Drivers are advised to plan accordingly and allow a little extra time if traveling during these hours.
