There will be a number of road closures in place on the M4 this week that are set to cause diversions and delays across south Wales.

These M4 closures come as a result of maintenance, road and environmental works as well as structural inspections that are set to be carried out during the week.

The closures are set to take place in various locations up and down the M4 including near Newport and Bridgend and will even include daytime disruptions over the weekend.

As we look ahead, these are the sections of the M4 that will experience road closures this week (February 5 to 11).
