A major roundabout in Chesterfield is set to be closed overnight for two weeks for road resurfacing works.

Derbyshire County Council has confirmed the A61 roundabout at Tesco, in the north of the town, will be shut from Monday, until 8 March.

The roundabout will be closed overnight from 19:00 until 05:00 GMT.

Drivers are encouraged to use the B6057 to the east of the roundabout and the B6543 to the west as diversion routes when the road is closed.

A county council spokesperson said: "By working at night we hope to minimise the disruption we know this closure will cause, please accept our apologies if this will affect you."
