Karen Cassar, assistant director of highways, said: "As part of these works, we will be rebuilding sections of the A631 Harpswell Roundabout that are nearing the end of their serviceable life.

"This will involve removing the current carriageway and replacing it with 3,300 tonnes of tarmac and other road materials.

"We'll be doing everything we can to keep disruption to a minimum, including carrying the works out overnight so people using it in the day aren't affected by the works, as well as only closing one leg of the roundabout at a time.

"Once complete, these improvements will make travelling the A631 much safer and more comfortable for all road users."
