Somerset West and Taunton's motorists will have 10 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 three closures already in place are expected to carry on this week:

• M5, from 10pm September 17 to 6am September 18, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M5 both directions, junction 27 to junction 26 - lane closure for barrier/fence safety repairs.

• M5, from 9pm August 15 to 6am October 24, 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.

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