Gedling road closures: two for motorists to avoid over the next fortnight

Gedling's motorists will have two 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 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:

• M1, from 8pm October 30 to 6am December 19, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M1 northbound and southbound, junction 27 to junction 29, Lane closures for survey works.

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

• M1, from 9am to 3pm on December 11, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M1 northbound, junction 27, hard shoulder 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.
