HAMPSHIRE is set for more traffic disruptions tonight as a motorway is closed for repairs.

The Highways Agency is closing the M3 eastbound between junctions 4a in Farnborough and 2 at Thorpe.

Work had been scheduled to be carried out last night but had to be postponed due to heavy rain.

There will be a clearly signed diversion in place via the A30.

Drivers using these sections of the M3 are advised to plan their journeys and allow some extra time to reach their destinations.
