Busy roundabout to close as part of £460m project
National HighwaysA busy Gloucestershire roundabout will be closed overnight for a week to allow for ongoing construction work.
Closures at the Air Balloon roundabout run from 21:00 to 06:00 GMT on Wednesday 8 January to Wednesday 15 January, apart from the weekend of 11 and 12 January.
National Highways is in the middle of a £460m scheme to redesign the roads in the area and create a new dual carriageway on the A417.
The closure is to allow for digging and for the removal of street lighting.
"These closures are necessary to ensure the safety of our workforce and to minimise disruption to drivers during periods of lighter traffic," National Highways said.
Diversion routes in both directions will run while the road is closed.
