WHITELEGG Way in Bournemouth will be closed for three nights for more carriageway and cycle path surfacing.

The Bournemouth road has been the topic of much discussion in recent months, with its new cycle lane described as an “absolute danger” after reports of drivers getting stuck on the high kerbs surfaced.

In order for crews to undertake the further surfacing of the carriageway and cycle path on the section between Wimborne Road junction and Redhill Roundabout safely, the road will be closed overnight from 7pm to midnight on Thursday March 10, Friday 11 and Saturday 12.

A BCP Council Transforming Cities Fund manager told the Echo that the upcoming works are in addition to the already completed work and will be undertaken further along the road.
