The planned reinstatement works on the A38 at Tarnock, originally scheduled from 7 July to 1 August 2025, have been postponed. A revised schedule will be shared as soon as it becomes available. We appreciate your patience and understanding.
A construction traffic management plan has been agreed with the local authorities which sets out the roads our vehicles can use for construction work and for removing the pylons.
When we’re working on the highways, our contractors need to manage the traffic to keep everyone safe. This will involve using temporary ‘stop/go’ boards, traffic lights and some short-term road closures.
Our contractors put up advance notice signs to let local road users know of any traffic restrictions and road closures.
We have agreed the following timings with the local highway authority.
Location | Duration | Description of works | Traffic Management in place | Map |
Nailsea Wall | 16 July to 22 August 2025 | Reinstatement works on Nailsea Wall involving removal of a temporary bellmouth access. Works include kerb and drainage replacement, reinstatement of original field access, and verge restoration. | A full road closure will be in place from 16 July to 22 August, Monday to Friday between 7:00 AM and 6:00 PM. Outside of these hours, one-lane access will be maintained with two-way traffic signals in operation. On weekends, traffic signals will remain in place when no work is taking place. If work is required, the weekday schedule will apply. Access for pedestrians and cyclists will be maintained throughout the period. Advanced warning signs, clearly marked diversions, and gatemen will be provided to assist all road users. |
Please note these dates may change at short notice.
We know our work may cause disruption to journeys and we’re sorry for any inconvenience.
We’re working with our contractors to keep traffic moving as best we can and to complete our work as quickly as possible.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
