Teignbridge's motorists will have three road closures to avoid nearby on the National Highways network 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 three closures are due to start over the next two weeks:

• A38, from 7pm September 13 to 6am September 15, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A38 eastbound, Linhay exit slip road closed for Devon County Council works. Diversion via A38 eastbound to Goodstone and return.

• A38, from 7pm September 13 to 6am September 15, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A38 Peartree to Goodstone Cross used as a diversion route for Devon County Council works.

• A38, from 7pm September 18 to 6am November 13, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A38 eastbound, Linhay to Goodstone 24hr lane closure for S278, junction improvement works. Minor local authority, junction closed, eastbound, traffic diverted via Goodstone junction. Westbound, traffic diverted via A38 westbound to Linhay and return to Goodstone to exit.

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