Work, which has already started in Westover Road and Old Christchurch Road, will continue into early summer.
Local people can have their say on whether a Local Lane Rental Scheme should be implemented.
Dorset Council is to improve walking and cycling journeys, but motorists need to allow extra time for their journeys during the works.
People will have to allow much more time for their journeys if they are planning to use the Christchurch bypass at the end of October.
Works starts on 31 March to construct new walking and cycling paths, crossings and street lighting improvements.
Footways will be widened, and a parallel crossing and reduced speed limit will be introduced on the road off the A35 near the country park.
Work starts on Ringwood Road on 2 September to implement bus, walking, cycling, road improvements and resurfacing.
The road will be closed between the junction of Glenferness Avenue and Leven Avenue from 8-12 July and traffic delays are expected.
Resurfacing works will close parts of Holdenhurst Road next week as second phase of a £2 million highways maintenance programme begins.
