All the planned M4 closures this week

A number of road closures will take place in and around the M4 this week. There will be several overnight closures between April 11 and April 17 this week both on the M4 and surrounding roads and junctions.

Last week's extensive overnight road closures and roadworks should not carry into the new week. The latest closures, most of which are to facilitate roadworks, will affect motorists travelling via Bristol or through Cardiff, Newport and Swansea.
