It's safe to say there's plenty of roadworks in and around Bristol at the moment and in the Horfield area they seem to be popping up every week. Residents here already have to deal with traffic from the extensive works being carried out to various streets along Muller Road, where a bus gate is being installed and, this week, residents along Filton Avenue and Wessex Avenue have had to also navigate four-way traffic controls on a busy junction.
According to maps on One.Network, the temporary four-way traffic lights - which include temporary crossing facilities for pedestrians - began on October 2 and were due to finish on Thursday (October 6). From then, more work will be carried out "with minimal carriageway incursion" further down on Lockleaze Road until October 10.
The work is being carried out by Bristol Water, according to its own roadworks map. And, while it isn't scheduled to last for much longer, some of the local residents have been put a bit out of place by the ongoing works in the area.
