Mansfield road closures: two for motorists to avoid this week

Mansfield's motorists will have two road closures to avoid nearby on the National Highways network this week.

And one of them is expected to cause moderate delays – with drivers facing a wait of between 10 and 30 minutes.

The latest expected works list, with notes from National Highways, shows that one closure already in place is expected to carry on this week:

• A38, from 8pm January 3 to 6am July 31, moderate delays (10-30 minutes): M1 northbound and southbound, junction 29, slip road closures due to structure maintenance, diversion via National Highways and local authority network.

And one more closure will begin over the next seven days:

• M1, from 8pm March 21 to 5am March 23, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M1 southbound, junction 30 to junction 29a, Lane closure due to maintenance works.

National Highways is responsible for maintaining motorways and major A-roads, so closures of smaller roads will not be included in their schedule.
