APRIL NEWS
This month we finally said goodbye to the Temple Circus gyratory as the new, simplified road layout was installed. More information on the new layout can be found below or read our 2017 blog post to see how the junction has changed over the last 150 years.
We hope everyone has seen our time lapse of the demolition works at the former sorting office but if you missed it head to our blog to see the difference on site in only a couple of months. Not long now until it's completely clear!

Changes to road layout at Temple Gate
On Tuesday 23 April, we moved to the final road layout at Temple Gate. While there's still a lot of work to do, the junctions are now signal-controlled and the end is in sight for the works finishing this autumn.
Footways and cycle lanes are being constructed and programmed to open later in summer giving more space for pedestrians and cyclists as well as a single stage crossing between Brunel Mile and Temple Meads station.
For more information on the scheme and the latest updates of what's happening on site, head across to our website.
