Leeds and Yorkshire motorway closures: All route diversions including A1M southbound at Scotch Corner

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.

Closures to the M621 at Holbeck, M1 at Meadowhall and A1(M) near Leeds Festival have previously caused disruption, while works continue on the M621 near Elland Road - which is nearing completion after a two year programme of works.

Meanwhile in recent weeks, closures to the M1 near the Barnsley and Lofthouse interchanges and on the northbound route between Sheffield and Rotherham have caused delays.

Here’s a full list of the disruption due to effect traffic this week...
