ESSENTIAL work is to take place on the A483 in Wrexham to increase the length of two central reserve crossovers together with drainage and barrier upgrades. The works, between junctions 5 and 7, will begin on June 1 and are programmed to take six weeks. These crossover improvements are vital to ensure contra-flow arrangements are in place to facilitate future carriageway resurfacing work. The existing surfacing in this location requires replacing later this year. This work has to be carried out to maintain the condition of the road and to protect the safety of the travelling public. In order to carry out the resurfacing work later this year as quickly and as safely as possible, traffic will be placed into a contraflow arrangement using the crossovers in the central reserve. These crossovers have been assessed and identified as needing to be upgraded to ensure they are safe for use when required.
