More gas works are planned for a busy road in Stoke-on-Trent, starting on Monday (28 October).

Two-way signals will be installed on Sandon Road, Meir - near the junction for Grindley Lane - between 28 October and 24 November.

This comes as six weeks of roadworks begin on the Windmill Hill junction. Read more about those works here.

A spokesperson for Cadent said: "These works are part of a multi billion pound investment in our gas Network across the West Midlands which will keep the gas flowing to the homes of the people of Stoke-on-Trent and beyond for years to come.

Another series of gas works taking place further down Sandon Road (Nub News).

"The vital works will see us replacing decades old gas mains, ensuring that our Network is fit for the future and allow us to keep people safe and warm in their homes.

"In order for our engineers to be able to carry out the works as safely - and as swiftly - as possible, we have worked with the Local Authority to introduce traffic management systems which will be in operation for the lifetime of the project.

"Naturally, we understand the frustrations that this will cause to residents and road users and we urge everybody to allow a little more time for their journeys. We thank everybody for their patience and understanding as we carry out these crucial works."
