The A12 is set to close for five nights as part of ongoing construction work.
Motorists using the major route are being warned of a series of overnight closures as National Highways carries out repair work.
The A12 southbound will be closed between junction 25 at Marks Tey and junction 23 as part of carriageway reconstruction and renewal works.
According to One.network, the closures are due to run overnight until Saturday, October 24, with work taking place between 9pm and 5am.
National Highways said the latest work follows an overnight closure on Friday, October 16.
During the closures, southbound drivers will be diverted off the A12 at junction 25.
Traffic will be directed along the A120 towards Braintree before joining the A131 towards Chelmsford.
Drivers will then reach the A12 at junction 19 before being directed northbound to junction 25, where they can resume their journey.
National Highways said the closures are required to keep road users and its workforce safe while the repairs are carried out.
One.network lists the works as carriageway reconstruction and repair on behalf of National Highways.
