Drivers using the M48 Severn Bridge can expect disruption from next month as lane closures will be in place while cable inspections are carried out. The inspection works will be starting in June and will last around eight months.
During this time, lane closures will be in place and the bridge will also be closed totally over several weekends. National Highways said the "essential programme of cable inspections" on the M48 Severn Bridge will enable them to monitor corrosion.
In a statement, National Highways said: "To carry out these cable inspections and to ensure the safety of both the public and workforce, long-term lane closures will be put in place.
