Road users in vehicles under 14ft 3 are advised to follow the ‘solid circle’ diversion signs.

This sees theme exit the M1 at junction 30 and rejoin at J31 around eight miles later, having been diverted via the A616, A619, A60 and A57.

Those in vehicles taller than 14ft 3 should follow ‘solid triangle’ diversion signs.

The closure will last a ‘number of hours’.
