Somerset West and Taunton's motorists will have eight road closures to avoid nearby on the National Highways network this week.

And one of them is expected to cause delays of between 10 minutes and half an hour.

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 10 to 6am September 11, 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.

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

• M5, from 8pm September 13 to 6am September 14, moderate delays (10-30 minutes): M5 northbound, junction 26 entry slip road closure for road markings, diversion via M5 southbound to junction 27.

• M5, from 9pm September 13 to 6am September 14, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M5 northbound, junction 26 to 25 exit slip road to Taunton Dean services closed for road markings.

• M5, from 9pm September 19 to 5am September 20, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M5 northbound, junction 26 lane closure for electrical works.

• M5, from 9am to 3pm on September 25, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M5 northbound, junction 26 entry slip lane closure for sign repairs.

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