Road closures: six for South Tyneside drivers over the next fortnight

Drivers in and around South Tyneside will have six National Highways road closures to watch out for this week.

But the news isn't too bad, with all of them only expected to cause slight delays, of less than 10 minutes.

The latest expected works list, with notes from National Highways, shows that six closures are due to start over the next two weeks:

• A184, from 8pm September 11 to 6am September 13, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A194M clockwise Whitemare Pool to Whitemare Pool - lane closure for inspection/survey on behalf of National Highways.
