Motorists can expect more delays near Witney's notorious Bridge Street.

Contractors start work at the beginning of October on updating the water mains in West End and part of Hailey Road.

It is the latest part of a refurbishment programme for the mains under Witney's streets, carried out by OC Summers.

There were lengthy delays earlier this year when the work was carried out in Bridge Street. Single lane traffic lights will again be in operation in West End, which leads into Bridge Street.

Mr Dave Martin, spokesman for OC Summers, says they will not be renewing the mains in the centre of the town until after Christmas.
