Road closures: seven for Milton Keynes drivers over the next fortnight

Drivers[1] in and around Milton Keynes[2] will have seven National Highways road closures to watch out for this week.

And two of them are expected to cause severe delays – with motorists facing waits of at least 30 minutes. Another three will cause moderate delays of between 10 minutes and half an hour.

The latest expected works list, with notes from National Highways, shows that three closures already in place are expected to carry on this week:
