THE southbound lane of Medina Way will be closed overnight on Monday for signage and lining work ­— in conjunction with new traffic arrangements being trialled.

The new traffic arrangements will see if vehicle flows on Medina Way and Coppins Bridge in Newport can be improved.

The trial will test whether queues in the left-hand lane of the Medina Way dual carriageway, on the approach to Coppins Bridge from Cowes, can be shortened.
