A spokesperson for contractor Balfour Beatty Vinci said:

> "As work progresses on the A5 Hints Bypass overbridge, it is necessary to temporarily close the road to allow modifications to the traffic management arrangements.  
>  
> "These changes are required to create sufficient space within the central reservation to facilitate upcoming drainage installation and barrier construction works."
