The affected section of road is between the Junction 34 southbound and Junction 34 northbound roundabouts for Meadowhall and Tinsley.
Drivers are being asked to consider alternative routes and plan their journeys ahead of time.
A footpath diversion is in place, National Highways added.
Cadent Gas says the works will also not cause any disruption to residents’ gas supplies.
