A STRETCH of the A483 in Wrexham is set to close for a series of nightly closures.

The Newbridge bypass (between A483 Junction 1 Ruabon Interchange to Halton roundabout) will be closed in both directions for five nights between November 11 and 15.

The reason for the closure, which will be between 9pm and 6am each day, is to allow general cyclic maintenance work and bridge inspections to take place.

The diversion is via the A5 and A539 through Llangollen - which will be signposted.
