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 two weeks:

• A36, from 8pm August 30 to 6am September 1, moderate delays (10-30 minutes): A36 both directions Bathampton to Beckington closed for white lining. Diversion via A361, A350, A4, Upper Bristol Road, A3064 and vice versa.

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