After two years of traffic restrictions, Gipsy Patch Lane in Stoke Gifford will finally reopen to two-way traffic next month. South Gloucestershire Council has confirmed the road will open fully on Monday, April 25 after more closures over the Easter holidays.
Work on the key route, which has caused major disruption in the area, has included the replacement of the old railway bridge, and the widening of paths and bus lanes. It is part of the Cribbs Patchway Metrobus Extension (CPME), designed to help reduce congestion and improve journey times between Bristol Parkway and Cribbs Causeway.
The council says to enable the road to reopen both ways in April, resurfacing work will need to take place over the Easter period. From Friday, April 8 at 8pm to Monday, April 25 at 6am, the road will be closed to all traffic between its junction with Little Stoke Lane and the entrance to Pegasus Park.
