ROADWORKS which have blighted drivers and businesses lives will be finished by the start of next week.
Sutton Ford bridge in Rochford has been closed since September 10 and diversions in place away from Sutton Road causing huge tailbacks as drivers avoid the area.
The essential maintenance work to strengthen the bridge has had a dramatic effect on local businesses too.
The road will reopen on Monday.
