Bath and North East Somerset road closures: two for motorists to avoid this week

Bath and North East Somerset'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:

• 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 one more closure will begin over the next seven days:

• A36, from 9am February 20 to 3pm February 24, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A36 Brassknocker Hill to Limpley Stoke - two-way signals for inspection/surveys.

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