Part-time restrictions will be in force from 14 January, apart from on Saturdays, when the route will be clear all day.
While closures are in place, motorists will need to drive via the Five Mile Road, Route Orange and Mont à la Brune or via Route de Francfief, Route de La Haule and Route des Genêts.
The resurfacing is due to be completed in ten phases and access to premises will be maintained. However, Infrastructure says this may not be possible during the last stages when the final road surface is being laid but added that residents would be warned when this would take place.
Meanwhile, LibertyBus has announced that it is making a number of special arrangements for passengers due to travel through the affected area – including those heading to the Airport – and are due to release further details next week.
Businesses along the route will open as normal throughout the project.
The area which will be resurfaced stretches from the junction with La Marquanderie to a few metres short of Rue Carrée – near to where the new Les Quennevais School is being built.
However, the Infrastructure Department said that heavy construction vehicles would not be travelling over the newly laid surface.
A spokeswoman said: ‘The surfacing will not extend as far north as the access to the new school for heavy construction traffic.
‘Heavy construction traffic originates from the north, and will not need to go over the relaid surface to access the new school.’
The department spokeswoman also said that no excavation work would need to take place on the new surface to connect the school to utilities.
She said: ‘No further excavations will be required where the new surface is to be laid for the utility connections to the new school.
‘All the utility companies were given advance notice of the works.
‘The new surface will be subject to a three-year embargo on routine utility excavations.’
