The A606 Melton Road in West Bridgford will have 24-hour traffic lights for 16 weeks as work starts on a new cycle network.
Traffic lights will be in place between Carnarvon Road and Village Street in Edwalton when work starts on the route on Monday February 20.
A 20 miles per hour speed limit will be introduced in the area including an advisory limit on the A606 Melton Road in the vicinity of the shops.
Parking restrictions will also come into force with further details set to be released.
The work involves the widening of some of the existing carriageway and kerbing works along with drainage, surfacing and signing works.
Neil Hodgson, head of consultancy at Via East Midlands, who manage highways on behalf of Nottinghamshire County Council said: “We’re enhancing the existing cycle routes in the area wherever possible, however there will be some disruption to residents as we introduce on-road cycle lanes, including the A606 Melton Road.
“There will be no alterations or disruption to shops in this area and we will have teams working over a number of weeks, but we will be doing as much as possible to minimise the impact on road users.
“While I am aware that the works may cause a short-term inconvenience to local residents and road users, we hope that the long-term benefits can be enjoyed by the wider West Bridgford community.
“During our consultation we had a fantastic response and almost 90 per cent of the those who responded support the delivery of improved cycling facilities in West Bridgford.
“Only a small number of objections were received and we have been able to accommodate the vast majority of these in our plans.”
The complete network will comprise of around 17 miles of cycle routes which is expected to be operational in summer later this year.
