The road will be closed between its junctions with Castle Street and Royal Architects Road.

UPDATED * 15.21pm

A Wightfibre spokesperson has told Isle of Wight Radio:

'With regards to Old Road, East Cowes, it is not a full road close, we are operating under a 2 way traffic light system carrying out some of our work. This will only be for a couple of days and then the road will be fully open again.

'The permit in question was for Crown Parks to carry out resurfacing work on our behalf, this has been cancelled and we plan to only return after summer at the end of September, when we will apply for a new permit.'
