Road closures: two for Broxtowe drivers over the next fortnight

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

But the news isn't too bad, with both 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 two closures are due to start over the next two weeks:

• M1, from 8pm October 16 to 6am October 18, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M1 northbound and southbound, junction 26 to junction 28, slip road and lane closures due to horticultural works, diversion route via National Highways network and local authority network.

• A52, from 8pm October 24 to 6am October 25, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A52 eastbound and westbound, Priory roundabout to Bramcote roundabout, Gap and lane closure due to maintenance work, diversion via National Highways network.

National Highways is responsible for maintaining motorways and major A-roads, so closures of smaller roads will not be included in their schedule.
