Drivers will face disruption on the M5 in Devon tonight because of two closures.
The northbound carriageway will be shut between 8.30pm and 6am between junction 27 (Tiverton) and junction 28 (Cullompton).
National Highways says the closure is for carriageway reconstruction works. A diversion will be in place via the B3181 and A38.
These works will be carried out every night this week, so the carriageway will fully re-open on Saturday morning.
Some planned closures in the region tonight:
