Hampshire Constabulary confirmed they would be closing the busy dual-carriageway at 9am to upright the lorry.
A spokesperson said on Twitter: "We wanted to give you notice of a closure on the A34 southbound, at the junction for the A303 near Sutton Scotney, which will come into place at 9am.
"A lorry has overturned and will need righting again, which will require the road to be closed. Thank you for your patience!
"Currently, lane two is still open and we are leaving it open for the morning traffic to clear.
"Diversions will be put in place from 9am, and we expect the closure to remain for around three hours."
