A NUMBER of simultaneous road works are causing frustration for Launceston’s drivers.

Throughout the town, there are a number of roadworks causing closures for vehicles at various times between the hours of 7pm and 6am.

Works are being undertaken on Tavistock Road, Exeter Street, Windmill Hill, and Wooda Road.

As a result, the works which are scheduled to finish on April 5 - though there may be delays - are leaving residents driving in circles to avoid closures.

For many of the closures, drivers are being diverted via the A30 before being taken back on route in order to navigate the town.

The works are being undertaken by Cornwall Council to allow for resurfacing, resulting in heavy disruption.
