He said: “We’re really sorry for the disruption that’s been caused by work we’re carrying out near Blackpole roundabout.
"We’ve been working in the area to install new connections to our water network.
"We’re pleased to say this work is now complete.
"All that’s left to do now is return the road back to normal, before removing the traffic lights we’ve temporarily put in place. Again, we’re sorry for the disruption.”
