Drivers in and around Mid Devon will have six 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 less than 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 9am July 18 2022 to 11.59pm August 29 2027, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M5, junction 28 to 29 hard shoulder closure in both directions for parapet works.

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

• M5, from 9pm August 19 to 6am August 21, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M5 both directions, junction 27 to 28, lane closure for structure inspections.

• M5, from 8pm August 21 to 4am August 23, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M5 both directions, junction 28 to junction 29 - lane closure for drainage works.

• M5, from 9pm August 22 to 4am August 23, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M5 both directions, junction 26 to junction 27 - lane closure for barrier/fence safety repairs.

• A30, from 8pm August 27 to 6am August 30, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A30 both directions Moor Lane, Exeter to Daisymount, Ottery St Mary carriageway closure and M5 both directions, junction 29 exit and entry slip road closures for maintenance works, diversions via:, Motorway traffic M5, junction 30, A3052, B3180, Non-Motorway traffic A3015,A379, A3052,B3180.

• M5, from 8pm September 2 to 4am September 4, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M5 southbound, junction 27 to junction 28, lane closures 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.
