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

Bassetlaw's motorists will have three 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 less than 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 December 8 2023 to 6am January 27 2024, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A1 northbound and southbound, North Muskham to Apleyhead, slip road, lane and lay-by closures for barrier repairs, diversion via national highways and local authority network.

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

• A1, from 8pm January 17 to 6am January 20, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A1 northbound, Tuxford, slip road and lane closures for electrical works, diversion via National Highways network and local authority network.

• A1, from 8pm January 18 to 6am January 19, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A1M southbound, junction 35 to junction 34, Lane closures for general cleaning and 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.
