A fresh batch of roadworks will begin across Wiltshire over the next fortnight with delays expected on major routes.
The upcoming National Highways works will start on some of the county’s busiest roads at different points within the next two weeks.
While some of these works will cause minimal disruption, some are expected to cause noticeable delays.
The most significant of these schemes will see lane closures on the M4 in Wiltshire during the weekend of Friday, October 18, when the motorway will completely shut in both directions between Bath and Bristol.
