Drivers are being warned the main route between South Bristol and the rest of the city will be closed for the entire weekend, as the final phase of work to repair the busiest bridge in the city is completed.
Avon Bridge, which carries the A3029 Brunel Way from Ashton Gate to the Cumberland Basin and Hotwells, will close northbound for all traffic from 6pm on Friday - and stay closed until 6am on Monday morning.
The closure will see a diversion route set up for traffic heading towards Hotwells and the Portway, and it will be along the A370 Coronation Road to Bedminster Bridge, then back along Cumberland Road to the Cumberland Basin.
