Bassetlaw road closures: three for motorists to avoid this week

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 under 10 minutes.

The latest expected works list, with notes from National Highways, shows that three closures are due to start this week:

• A1, from 8pm May 30 to 5am June 3, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A1 northbound and southbound, Markham Moor to Elkesley, Lane closures for electrical works.

• A1, from 8pm May 30 to 6am June 28, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A1 northbound and southbound, Ranby to Markham Moor, slip road, lane and lay-by closures for maintenance works, diversion via National Highways network and local authority network.

• A1, from 8pm May 31 to 5am June 2, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A1 northbound and southbound, Tuxford, Lane closure due to works on behalf of Network Rail.

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