Rain forecast delays motorway bridge repairs

Repairs to a motorway bridge in Surrey have been postponed due to a forecast of rain.

The works at junction three of the M3 (Lightwater Interchange) were originally due to start at 21:00 GMT on Friday and finish at 06:00 on Monday.

However, the A322 northbound closure will now take place from 28 February to 3 March, according to National Highways.

A spokesperson said: "Rain can have an impact on work schedules as it can affect some of the components or treatments used."

A second weekend closure at the A322 southbound has subsequently been pushed back.
