Work is expected to be finished by June 3, but the council said the order will remain in force for 18 months in case additional work is required.
Temporary clearway and parking suspensions will also be in place along the route as signposted.
Any vehicles parked in contravention of the suspension may be removed under the Removal and Disposal of Vehicles Regulations 1986.
Advance warning signs will be placed on the road two weeks ahead of the closure, giving drivers notice of the exact dates affected.
