Road closures: seven for Bassetlaw drivers this week

Drivers in and around Bassetlaw will have seven National Highways road closures to watch out for this week.

But motorists 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 two closures already in place are expected to carry on this week:

• A1, from 8pm March 7 to 6am April 28, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A1 northbound and southbound, Apleyhead to Blyth, Lane closures due to maintenance work.

• A1, from 8pm January 18 to 6am April 29, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A1 northbound and southbound, Sutton On Trent to Upper Morton, Lane closure due to works on behalf of National Highways.

And a further five closures will begin over the next seven days:

• A1, from 8pm April 24 to 5am April 25, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A1 southbound, Ranby to Apleyhead, exit slip road and lane closure for maintenance works, diversion via National Highways network and local authority network.

• A1, from 8pm April 27 to 6am April 28, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A1 northbound and southbound, Tuxford to Apleyhead, Lane closures due to maintenance works.

• A1, from 1pm April 28 to 6am May 2, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A1 northbound and southbound, Elkesley to Blyth, Lane closures due to maintenance works.

• A1, from 8pm April 28 to 6am May 27, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A1 northbound and southbound, Markham Moor Interchange to Apleyhead Interchange, Lane closures for maintenance works.

• A1, from 8pm April 29 to 5am April 30, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A1 northbound, Carlton On Trent to Weston, 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.
