Bassetlaw road closures: four for motorists to avoid over the next fortnight

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

But drivers will be able to take some solace in the fact that all of them are only expected to cause slight delays, of under 10 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:

• A1, from 8pm July 24 to 6am September 2, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A1 northbound and southbound, Tuxford to Ranby, Lane closures for maintenance works.

And a further three closures will begin over the next two weeks:

• A1, from 8pm August 14 to 6am August 15, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A1 northbound, Elkesley to worksop, Lane closure due to maintenance works.

• M1, from 8pm August 14 to 6am August 16, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M1 northbound and southbound, junction 29 to junction 29a, Lane closures due to survey works.

• A1, from 8pm August 24 to 6am August 25, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A1 northbound, Markham Moor to Elkesley, Lane closure due to maintenance work.

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