The latest expected works list, with notes from National Highways, shows that one closure already in place is expected to carry on this week:

A184, from 8pm May 16 to 6am July 8, moderate delays (10-30 minutes): A19 northbound and southbound, Downhill Lane, carriageway closures and lane closures for interchange upgrades.

And one more closure will begin over the next seven days:

A184, from 8pm July 14 to 6am July 16, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A184 eastbound and westbound, Testos to Whitemarepool, Lane closures for horticultural works.

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