Leeds and Yorkshire motorway closures: All route diversions including M1 Birdwell Interchange near Barnsley

Drivers in and around Yorkshire will have a number of National Highways road closures and diversions to watch out for this week.

But motorists will be able to take some solace in the fact that some are only expected to cause slight delays, of less than 10 minutes.
