Key route into Bristol to close overnight for next fortnight

Work to radically change a key dual-carriageway route into Bristol from north Somerset will mean the road is completely closed every night for the next two weeks, starting from tonight (Monday, March 27).

Roadworks began on the A370 Long Ashton bypass in early March with the road narrowed to one lane - something that has already caused long tailbacks on the road from Backwell into Ashton Gate.

But from tonight North Somerset Council begin a series of overnight closures, which will send motorists on a diversion through the village of Long Ashton, with the road closed between the Flax Bourton exit and the park-and-ride exit on the edge of Bristol.
