The A690 in Sunderland will close for four consecutive Sundays while it is resurfaced, with drivers urged to follow diversion routes.
The temporary closure is part of a phased project and will affect A690 Durham Road between its junctions with Thorney Close and North Moor Lane.
Sunderland City Council made the order which will take effect on Sunday, October 18.
The closure is expected to last for four Sundays while the resurfacing is completed.

Only vehicles involved in the works and emergency services attending calls will be allowed through the closure.
Diversion routes will help drivers avoid the closure.
Southbound traffic will be redirected via North Moor Lane, Silksworth Land, and Silksworth Road.
Northbound traffic will be diverted via Thorney Close Road, Telford Road, and Grindon Lane.
The closure will apply only where traffic signs are in place, the council said.
The order allows the closure to last up to 18 months, but the work is expected to finish within four Sundays.
