Vehicles were getting into position to remove the lights at lunchtime.
According to the council's Southampton Travel account, minor works will continue in the area, but the much-hated temporary lights "will not be reinstated for this".
Work, which started around April 11, was originally due to end on April 22, but has continued for an extra week. Southern Water were invited to offer more information and comment on the work when we contacted them on Tuesday.
Temporary traffic lights required for the @SouthernWater works on Cobden Bridge will be removed this afternoon.
