A major A-road on the outskirts of Bristol will be closed for five days from today (April 25).
The A369 near Ashton Court is set to close from today to allow North Somerset Council to fell a number of diseased ash trees. No traffic will be allowed to pass in either direction at Rownham Hill, a major route into and out of Bristol, between 9.30am and 3.30pm every day from Monday 25 to Friday 29 April.
North Somerset Council said that marshalls will be present to allow access to residents and businesses only, adding that diversion routes will be in place by connecting the A369 to the A370 using the B3129 (Beggar Bush Lane) near Failand and the B3129 (Clevedon Road) near Long Ashton. The public is asked to follow diversion signage.
