The £46 million scheme, which is funded by central government, will reduce journey times; reduce congestion; improve air quality and improve safety for drivers.
Drainage will also be improved to provide better flood protection, and the scheme has been designed to minimise the impact on the Canklow flood storage reservoir.
Once work is complete the landscaping along the road be reinstated, including new trees and hedgerows.
