MOTORISTS will be faced with more disruption across the M4 this week. 

Several parts of the motorway in Newport will either be partially or fully closed due to roadworks.

The works include maintenance and resurfacing work and while they will mostly take place overnight, some drivers may still be affected.

Some of the sections will be closed for a few days while other more major works could impact part of the motorway for several weeks.
