Hillingdon road closures: four for motorists to avoid this week

Hillingdon's motorists will have four road closures to avoid nearby on the National Highways network this week.

But drivers will be able to take some solace in the fact that all of them are only expected to cause slight delays, of under 10 minutes.

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

• M25, from 10pm October 8 to 5.30am October 10, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M25 clockwise, junction 14 to junction 15, Lane closures for drainage works.

• M25, from 12.02am June 1 2022 to 11.59pm June 1 2023, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M25 clockwise, junction 15, Hard shoulder closure for CAT 1 embankment erosion.

And a further two closures will begin over the next seven days:

• M4, from 10pm October 13 to 5.30am October 14, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M4 westbound, junction 3 to junction 4B, Lane closures for M4 SMP technology works.

• A40, from 11pm October 17 to 6am October 18, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A40 northbound to M40 northbound, junction 1, Lane closures for maintenance work.

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