Road closures: one for North Tyneside drivers this week

Drivers in and around North Tyneside will have a National Highways road closure to watch out for this week.

But the news isn't too bad, as 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 this week:

• A19, from 8pm November 9 to 5am November 12, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A19 northbound. Holystone, Lane closure for 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.
