A2 maintenance is scheduled for this week, potentially causing delays and diversions for drivers.
These closures are part of a planned maintenance effort to boost road safety and infrastructure.
Drivers are forewarned that diversions and delays might accompany these crucial works.
National Highways, responsible for maintaining motorways and major A-roads, does not oversee smaller road shutdowns.
