The M4 is set to close to traffic at Swindon while National Highways carries out roadworks.
National Highways will close the eastbound carriageway of the motorway to drivers between 8pm on Monday, August 12, and 6pm on Tuesday, August 13.
A listing on the one.network website suggests work will begin at 8pm, but the National Highways website lists the closure as starting at 9pm.
The closure will be in place from junction 15, at east Swindon, to junction 14 at Hungerford.
During this time, electrical work will be carried out on the 22km stretch of the major route, although the westbound carriageway will remain open.
The roadworks are part of a number of projects set to affect the M4 near Wiltshire this week, including the closure of both the westbound and eastbound carriageways between junction 19 at Bristol and junction 18 at Bath.
This full motorway closure will begin at 9.30pm on Thursday, August 15, and continue until 6am the following morning.
The carriageways will be closed for structure inspection and a diversion route has been put in place.
This will see drivers use the M32, A4174, A420, A46, and vice versa, to re-join the M4.
