Road closures: five for Newark and Sherwood drivers over the next fortnight

Drivers in and around Newark and Sherwood will have five National Highways road closures to watch out for this week.

But the news isn't too bad, with all of them only expected to cause slight delays, of less than 10 minutes.

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

• A1, from 8pm June 5 to 6am June 6, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A1 northbound, Vicarage lane, temporary traffic signals for electrical works.

• A1, from 10pm June 13 to 6am June 14, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A1 southbound, North Muskham, Footway working for works being undertaken on behalf of STW.

• A46, from 1pm June 14 to 6am June 27, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A46 northbound and southbound, Flintham to Newark on Trent, slip road, lane and mobile lane closures due to maintenance works.

• A46, from 8pm June 14 to 5am June 15, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A46 southbound, Carholme to Skellingthorpe, Lane closures for electrical works.

• A46, from 1pm June 19 to 6am July 4, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A46 northbound and southbound, Newark on Trent to Swinderby, Lay-By and lane closure and temporary traffic signals 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.
