The roadworks are being carried out by UK Power Network on High Street and Marine Drive. One Network claims the works on High Street started on March 27, and are due to be completed by April 10. The works on Marine Drive started on March 29, and are also set to be finished by April 10.
But, today, the works – which also feature temporary traffic lights – are causing chaos in the area, with tailbacks all through the village on to the A259.
