It says the work can only be carried out safely if one of the A19 carriageways is closed.
Highways England said: “By shutting the road fully in one direction, Highways England’s team of engineers can work around the clock to complete the job as quickly as possible.”
A diversion will be in place where drivers come off the A19 at A1046 (Haverton Hill/Portrack), go south on A1032 (Newport Bridge) to A66/A1032 (Cannon Park), A66 Westbound to A66/A19 interchange.
