Flintshire: Congestion on A55 due to ongoing roadworks

There are delays on the A55 Eastbound between J34 Ewloe Loop and J36A Broughton Retail Park due to ongoing roadworks.

Drivers are facing delays this morning of around 14 minutes according to traffic sensors.

Motorists using this stretch of A55 have been warned to prepare for a series of lane closures over the next few weeks as essential maintenance work takes place on the main route between Cheshire and Flintshire.

The project, focusing on the section between Junction 36 Broughton and the border between England and Wales, aims to address critical issues with the underlying concrete bays and the road surface.

Resurfacing work has commenced on the eastbound side this week, and will last until 3 March.

This period will see a mix of overnight weekday closures, weekend closures, and daytime lane restrictions.

Specific closures include:

• Overnight closures eastbound from Junction 36 Warren Interchange to Junction 36A Broughton Retail Park, from 20:00 to 06:00 on weekdays between 11 February and 23 February.
• Weekend closures from 20:00 on 16 February to 06:00 on 19 February, and again from 20:00 on 23 February to 20:00 on 25 February, extending to 3 March at 06:00.
• Daytime lane closures from 06:00 on 12 February to 20:00 on 2 March, from Junction 35 Dobshill to Junction 38 Posthouse.
