Bristol road closures: three for motorists to avoid over the next fortnight

Bristol's motorists will have three road closures to avoid nearby on the National Highways network this week.

But the news isn't too bad, with all of them only expected to cause slight delays, of less than 10 minutes.

The latest expected works list, with notes from National Highways, shows that three closures are due to start over the next two weeks:

• M5, from 9pm June 2 to 6am June 3, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M5 northbound, junction 18 to junction 17 single lane running for surveys.

• M49, from 10pm June 2 to 6am June 3, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M49 southbound, M4, junction 22 to M5, junction 18a carriageway closure for central reservation, diversion M4 eastbound to junction 20, southbound, on M5.

• A4, from midnight, June 3 to 11pm June 19, slight delays (under 10 minutes): A4 Portway Roundabout to St Andrews Roundabout used by GWR Railway Replacement Buses on Bristol Temple Meads - Severn Beach and Bristol Temple Meads - Filton Abbey Wood routes.

National Highways is responsible for maintaining motorways and major A-roads, so closures of smaller roads will not be included in their schedule.
