LETTERS – Why is resurfacing taking ages?

Can someone explain to me why it is taking so long to do a short section of the A17 near the Fleet Hargate junction?

The traffic when the night closures are in force, comes thundering along Lowgate, Gedney, which is unsuitable for the HGVs that are using it.

Also further along the road, the dual carriageway section, approaching the roundabout towards Long Sutton, is in a terrible state. Why isn’t this being resurfaced?
