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 the news isn't too bad, with both of them only expected to cause slight delays, of under 10 minutes.

The latest expected works list, with notes from National Highways, shows that two closures are due to start over the next two weeks:

• M1, from 8pm January 3 to 6am January 11, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M1 northbound and southbound, junction 28 to junction 29, Lane closures for drainage works.

• A46, from 8pm January 5 to 6am January 6, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A52 eastbound and westbound, Gamston to Bingham, mobile lane closures 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.
