UP to 20 weeks of work is set to start on Pepper Street in Lymm village centre next month.
It follows on from a public consultation when almost 250 people gave feedback on the best refurbishment options for the historic stone setts.
The majority of respondents said they would like to see the road reconstructed with reclaimed setts.
