Friday 31 October 2025 from 8am to 4pm
Description of work and disruption
We need to close Christmas Street again so we can resurface it. A section of Quay Street, where it meets Christmas Street, will also be closed.
The work will take place on Friday 31 October between 8am and 4pm.

A diversion will be in place for drivers.
You can access Small Street via Colston Avenue and Colston Avenue South.
To access the other end of Quay Street you will need to travel via Bridewell Street, which will be two-way during the resurfacing works.

Services that use Christmas Street – including the 71, 1, 2, 2a, 9, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 6, 7, 16 and 5 – will continue east along Lewins Mead, turn around on the St James Barton Roundabout (Bearpit) then turn left in to Bridewell Street to pick up their normal route along Nelson Street.
