 Continuous nearside lane closures will also be in operation on Great Western Road between West Graham Street and St George’s Road on-slip to Great West Road from Sunday, March 23 at 8pm until Thursday, April 10 at 6am.

A spokesperson for Amey said: “Please note, all schemes are weather dependent and may be cancelled or rescheduled if weather conditions are not favourable. 

“This scheme will benefit vehicles using this route each day, by improving the condition and safety of the parapet and reducing the need for more extensive maintenance in the future.”
