Somerset West and Taunton'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 two closures already in place are expected to carry on this week:

• M5, from 8pm November 7 to 6am November 30, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M5 northbound, junction 25 - 24 lane closures for resurfacing.

• A30, from 8pm October 27 2022 to 5am April 4 2023, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M5 both directions, junction 20 to 31 mobile lane closures for drainage works.

And a further two closures will begin over the next seven days:

• M5, from 8.30am November 21 to 4pm November 25, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M5 northbound, junction 26 hard shoulder closure for vegetation works.

• M5, from 9pm November 21 to 5am November 24, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M5, junction 26 lane closures on both exit slip roads to facilitate Somerset County Council works on the gyratory.

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