Road closures: almost a dozen for Wealden drivers over the next fortnight

Drivers in and around Wealden will have 10 National Highways road closures to watch out for this week.

But motorists 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.
