Work is due to restart on the tower in central London which was involved in a fatal helicopter crash.
A temporary crane put up on The Tower, St George Wharf, to fix the original one that was hit last month by the aircraft, is to be removed.
The work means roads in the area will be closed until 05:00 GMT on Monday. The work was due to take place last weekend but was delayed by bad weather.
The helicopter pilot and a pedestrian on the street died in the incident.
Cars and two buildings caught fire after the burning wreckage of the helicopter fell into Wandsworth Road at about 08:00 GMT on 16 January.
The funeral of the pilot, Capt Pete Barnes, 50, a father-of-two from near Reading, took place on Friday.
Matthew Wood, 39, from Sutton, south London, was killed as he was walking to work.
The helicopter, which was on a flight from Redhill to Elstree, was waiting to land at Battersea heliport where it had been diverted due to bad weather.
At the time of the crash there was low cloud, poor visibility and patches of freezing fog.
An investigation is being carried out by the Air Accidents Investigation Branch.
