The latest expected works list, with notes from National Highways, shows that three closures are due to start this week:

• A5036, from 9pm May 23 to 5am May 24, moderate delays (10-30 minutes): M58 westbound, junction 1 to Switch Island, M57 northbound, junction 6 to switch Island, A5036 eastbound and westbound, - Lane closure for Horticulture (Cutting and Planting).

• A5036, from 7am to 5pm on May 28, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A5036 eastbound and westbound, Seaforth roundabout and Netherton Road lane closures due to general maintenance.

• A5036, from 9.30am June 6 to 3.30pm July 1, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A5036 westbound, junction of Hawthorne Road lane closure due to maintenance works.

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