Drivers on the M4 between Wales and England have been warned that roadworks on the Severn bridge will remain until the summer of 2025.
The operator of the Prince of Wales Bridge – the busiest route between the two countries – has confirmed that resurfacing work will take more than six months longer than originally planned.
When the roadworks started in July, commuters were told the work would last until autumn 2024, but National Highways said “additional work” has delayed the £17m project on the bridge, which opened in 1996.
“We appreciate it is frustrating that the scheme is taking longer than planned,” said Chris Pope, programme delivery manager of National Highways.
