National Highways has announced 20 road closures in the area.
These closures are part of ongoing maintenance on motorways and major A-roads, which
National Highways is responsible for.
Three of these closures are expected to cause moderate delays for motorists, with potential wait times ranging from 10 minutes to 30 minutes.
While National Highways oversees these larger roads, the schedule does not account for any closures on smaller, local roads.
Drivers are advised to plan their journeys ahead to avoid delays during this period.
