Hide AdA spokesman for Lancashire County Council said: "The work currently taking place on Gannow Top bridge is to improve safety for pedestrians and cyclists.
"There will be lane closures on the roundabout with overnight closures in place on the motorway on five nights to allow the existing parapet to be removed, and the new one to be installed.
"During the overnight closures only one side of the motorway will be closed at any one time, allowing vehicles to exit at junction 10 and immediately rejoin the motorway on the other side of the bridge via the roundabout.
"We're sorry for any inconvenience and grateful for people's patience while we carry out this work."
