ROAD closures will be put in place when essential bridge repairs begin in WGC tonight (Friday).
Hertfordshire Highways will start re-surfacing and re-waterproofing the Twentieth Mile Bridge, on Broadwater Road, at 8pm.
The structure, which carries traffic over the railway line, is so named because it is located exactly 20 miles from London King's Cross.
Road closures will be enforced westbound, between the Osborn Way and Chequers roundabouts, each weekend from Friday 8pm until Monday 6am for the next four weeks.

"We will do our utmost to keep disruption to a minimum while work is in progress, but we would advise drivers to leave extra time for their journeys and take extra care during this period."
