Road closures: three for Bath and North East Somerset drivers this week

Drivers in and around Bath and North East Somerset will have three National Highways road closures to watch out for this week.

But motorists 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 two closures 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.

• A36, from 9pm February 21 to 5am February 23, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A36 Brassknocker Hill traffic signals 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.
