Road closures: two for Bassetlaw drivers over the next fortnight

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

But motorists will be able to take some solace in the fact that both 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 October 10 to 6am November 18, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A1 northbound and southbound, Blyth to Apleyhead, slip road, Lay-By and lane closures due to maintenance work, diversion via National Highways and local authority network.

And one more closure will begin over the next two weeks:

• M1, from 8pm November 8 to 5am November 9, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M1 southbound, junction 30 to junction 29, 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.
