Highway workers are carrying out work to improve temporary repairs done last year around the Gardiners Lane North junction, on the Southend-bound carriageway.

The work includes resurfacing the carriageway and slip road, and providing new curbing, and a cycle way. There will also be an investigation into drainage.
