South Hams's motorists will have seven 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 seven closures are due to start over the next two weeks:

• A38, from 8pm March 17 to 6am March 18, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A38 westbound, Lee Mill to Smithaleigh, lane closure for Structure upgrades.
