Just a reminder to clients of the upcoming road works that may effect you on your journey to us!
Please note that A417 has a total closure from Tuesday 26th - Sunday 31st May in Maisemore.
We recommend using the usual flood diversion route through Highnam and Highleadon. More details will be emailed to all clients this week with their usual 48hr email reminder.
We believe this has been planned during half term to minimise traffic congestion and as there are very few university students around campus we are hoping the back route runs freely. There is an additional diversion route using Over Old Road but this is a single track road so not advised especially during rush hours.
**Upcoming roadworks in the northwest of the county**
🚧 A417 at Maisemore - from 8am Tuesday 26 to 5pm Sunday 31 May a full road closure will be in place 24/7 to allow sewage works to take place. Please follow the signed diversion route. Emergency and pedestrian access will be maintained.
🚧 A40 Over Bridge - From 8 June until spring next year lane closures and full closures will be in place while National Highways carry out essential repair and maintenance work. More details 👉 https://orlo.uk/mqZRv
🚧 M50 junction 2 (A417) – From 8 June - 24 July an overnight full closure will be in place for National Highways bridge repairs, with 5-way traffic lights during the day. To complete the work safely, from 9pm-6am Monday to Friday, there will be a total closure of the M50/A417 Ledbury Road bridge and a total closure of the M50 junction 2 east and westbound.

We completely understand how frustrating it can be when there are multiple sets of works planned at the same time. We’re working closely with National Highways to make sure activity is coordinated as much as possible and disruption is kept to a minimum.
We recognise this won’t remove all disruption and are sorry for the inconvenience this may cause. We will continue to work with partners to keep any impact as limited and short as possible.
