Key route hit with years of roadworks for metrobus project finally complete

After more than three years of restrictions, work to create a brand new transport link just north of Bristol is finally finished. The Cribbs Patchway Metrobus Extension (CPME) was designed to help reduce congestion and improve journey times between Bristol Parkway and Cribbs Causeway.

Work on the route has caused major disruption in the area particularly along Gipsy Patch Lane. The road has been subject to full and partial closures since 2020, with residents and local businesses taking the brunt .

Works have included the replacement of the old railway bridge, and the widening of paths and bus lanes as part of the CPME, designed to help reduce congestion and improve journey times in the area.
