Road closures: four for North Somerset drivers over the next fortnight

Drivers in and around North Somerset will have four 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:

• M5, from 9pm February 2 to 6am February 6, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M5 northbound, junction 21 to 20, lane closure for carriageway repairs.

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

• M5, from 8pm February 6 to 6am February 10, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M5 northbound, junction 21 to 20, lane closure for carriageway repairs.

• M5, from 8pm February 12 to 6am February 13, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M5 northbound, junction 21 to 20, lane closure for carriageway repairs.

• M5, from 9pm February 19 to 5am February 20, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M5 southbound, junction 21 to 22 lane closures for electrical works.

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