Roadworks on Ware Rd / A417

There have been roadworks on Ware Rd with traffic lights for several weeks. As of this afternoon, the traffic lights have been removed by the works contractor but one side of Ware Rd is still closed, quite close to the juction with the A417. Ware Rd carries traffic to an industrial estate, including a large amount of HGV traffic. I'm concerned that the current arrangment is unsafe given how well used the road is and that the obsctruction is close to the junction of the A417.
