Not an easy thing to get arid of hence the nighttime closures for weeks in probably the worst place to have a closure on the A19 in terms of diversions.
Sorry, probably wasn't clear enough.
Residents in the area pushed for that last section to be included in the original plans.
Decision makers, in their wisdom(?), decided it wouldn't be.
So as well as the original widening and fixing the bodge job of tarmacing from the initial works - they then came back to do the southbound section of concreting (in two sections) and now the northbound (in two sections).
Once being underneath and north of the roundabout to the slips and then further north again.
Adding a further 2 or 3 months on to an existing project, with more inconvenience and cost than was ever needed if they did it all together.
