Gypsy Patch Lane update via Cribbs Patchway metrobus extension - CPME
Three-way temporary traffic lights will be in use on Gipsy Patch Lane from tomorrow, Monday 14 October.
The lights will need to be positioned at the railway bridge and will include the junction with Station Road.
The temporary lights are needed by Wales and West Utilities whilst diversionary work is carried out on the gas main in preparation for the replacement railway bridge next year. The work is expected to take up to two weeks and the lights will be in operation around the clock.
It was hoped that this work could be completed without the need for traffic lights but for the safety of all road users this is no longer the case. We apologise for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your continued patience.
All shops and businesses on and near Gipsy Patch Lane will be open as normal.
We will continue to keep local residents, businesses and commuters up to date on the project.
