Bristol’s Clean Air Zone begins in ten days but one stretch of road included within the zone has been taken out - but only for motorists who drive on it for 230 yards.
It means the section of Coronation Road as it passes between the Asda Bedminster store and the River Avon will be both within the Clean Air Zone and not in the Clean Air Zone at the same time - depending on which way a driver is travelling and where they are going at the time.
The potentially confusing situation has arisen because of the two and a half year long closure of another road half an hour away. Back in January this year, the northbound side of the A38 was closed at the start of Malago Road in Bedminster - a closure that will be in place until at least the summer of 2024.
