Drivers in and around Somerset West and Taunton will have five National Highways road closures to watch out for this week.

But the news isn't too bad, with all of them 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 9pm August 15 to 6am November 15, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M5 Both Directions, junction 24 to junction 26 lane closures for barrier renewal.

• A30, from 8pm October 27 2022 to 5am December 30 2023, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M5 both directions, junction 20 to 31 mobile lane closures for drainage works.

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

• M5, from 8pm November 8 to 5am November 11, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M5 southbound, junction 26 entry slip road lane closure for vegetation clearance.

• M5, from 9pm November 9 to 5am November 10, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M5 northbound, junction 25 entry slip road closure for barrier repair, diversion southbound to junction 26 and return.

• M5, from 8pm November 14 to 4am November 15, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M5 northbound, junction 25 to junction 24 lane closure for drainage.

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