Allerdale's motorists will have a road closure to avoid nearby on the National Highways network this week.

But drivers will be able to take some solace in the fact that it is 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 is due to start over the next two weeks:

• A66, from 6 pm July 20 to 2 am July 21, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A66 eastbound and westbound, Crosthwaite Rbt to Low Briery, Lane one closure for bridge inspections.

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