Multi-way traffic lights have been installed on the B3081 Ringwood Road at the junction with Woodlinken Drive with delays expected at peak times.

The lights are there to allow work by gas company SGN, approved by Dorset Council.

The roadworks started on Thursday afternoon during the rush-hour period, with some residents reporting being delayed for 45 minutes traveling from Ringwood on Verwood Road.

They are expected to last until at least March 9th.

In addition, temporary traffic lights are also in place on the B3072 Manor Road between Verwood and Three Legged Cross, also being carried out by SGN.
