A spokesman for National Highways said: “Our surveys will help us to understand what needs to be done when we reconstruct the road.
“This is part of our programme to rebuild and revitalise our concrete roads in England.
“As part of this, we will be replacing the old surface with a new modern road surface. These works will extend the life of the road and ensure better ride quality."
