Monday 1 to Saturday 13 December 2025
Description of work and disruption
Please note: This post was updated on 9 December 2025.
As part of the project to improve routes on Temple Way for walking, wheeling, cycling and public transport, we are carrying out work in early December that will impact road users.
Work is taking place at Temple Way’s junction with Broad Plain to install the contractor’s works units.
The work had been programmed to be carried out between 1 and 5 December, but an electrical fault has meant we have needed to extend it to Saturday 13 December.
This means Temple Way’s junction with Broad Plain will remain closed to all motor vehicles until Saturday 13 December. However, we will reopen the junction sooner if we can.
A signposted diversion is in place.
Access for pedestrians and cyclists
Access will be maintained throughout. Pedestrians and cyclists will need to follow signposted routes behind the works units and back onto pavements.
Access for motor vehicles
When Temple Way’s junction with Broad Plain is closed, all traffic will be diverted.
To drive to Broad Plain, travel along Avon Street, New Kingsley Road, Horton Street, Midland Road, Unity Street to Broad Plain.
To exit Broad Plain, travel along Broad Plain, Unity Street, Midland Road, Old Market Street, Old Market Street Roundabout, to Temple Way.
Access for buses
There are no bus stops on this route.
