M8 closure in Glasgow

Essential maintenance work on the M8 motorway in Glasgow is set to commence from August 11 to September 6, involving overnight closures between Junctions 18 and 16 from 10pm to 6am, with diversions in place for drivers. In Leicester, resurfacing of 'pitted' roads including Uppingham Road and Scraptoft Lane is scheduled, requiring traffic management during the repairs. Meanwhile, the M67 westbound is closed due to a significant diesel spill from a collision near Hyde, with traffic diversions activated. The M6 in Lancashire was also closed for more than four hours following a serious collision, which required emergency services to extricate a casualty. Lastly, the M69 in Leicestershire will face weekend closures for resurfacing work on August 16-19 and August 30-September 2, with detours planned to ensure safety. These maintenance efforts across various motorways aim to improve road conditions and safety for drivers.
