TWO busy roads will be closed-off in December while much-needed works are carried out.

A section of Grange Road, in Tiptree, and Wigborough Road, in Peldon, will be closed on December 18 for maintenance work.

A traffic notice has been issued for Grange Road in connection to section 14 of the 1984 Road Traffic Regulation Act.

The road will be closed in the interest of public safety while employees of Openreach deal with ‘overhead cabling works’.
