Bath and North East Somerset road closures: four for motorists to avoid over the next fortnight

Bath and North East Somerset's motorists will have four 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 all 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:

• A36, from midnight, December 19 2022 to 11pm November 23 2023, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A36 Bath to Warminster used by GWR Railway Replacement Buses on Bristol Temple Meads - Frome route.

And a further three closures will begin over the next two weeks:

• A36, from 10am to 3pm on August 14, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A36 Hinton Charterhouse traffic signals for manhole repair.

• A46, from 9pm August 14 to 5am August 18, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A46 southbound, London Road exit slip road - lane closure for electrical works.

• A36, from 10am to 3pm on August 15, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A36 Hinton Charterhouse traffic lights for drainage works.

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