EMERGENCY gas works are expected to cause disruption in Upton, less than one mile away from other similar works.

Temporary traffic lights are in operation in Blandford Road North while crews from SGN carry out emergency gas works.

The work has also caused the closure of the nearby Upton Close.

This work is located less than a mile away from other SGN emergency gas repairs ongoing in Blandford Road by Turlin Moor – which are expected to be removed by Friday morning (September 30).

SGN, who have been approached for more information, have apologised for “any unfortunate delays” to motorists.
