Newport Bridge: lane closures
Posted on Thursday 3rd March 2022
Lane closures will be in effect on Newport Bridge and the Old Green Roundabout from Monday 7 March for three weeks.
The closures are required to facilitate emergency repairs to Western Power apparatus.
The lane closures in place are as follows:
• Newport Bridge – the two middle lanes of the road on the Old Green Roundabout side of the bridge. This will be the right-hand lanes of both directions of travel. The closure will run from the roundabout to just after the point where the westbound bus lane ends, to allow traffic heading towards the roundabout to filter into the open lane.
• Old Green Roundabout – The right-hand lane of the Queensway approach, and the B4591 approach to the roundabout.
The lane closures will be in effect continuously throughout the three-week period. Residents are advised to plan their journeys as local traffic congestion is possible.
The council apologises in advance for any inconvenience caused, and thanks residents for their patience and understanding during this period.
