Farmfield Road, adjacent to Warden Hill Primary School in Cheltenham, will be closed for resurfacing during school hours this week and into next. The closure begins at 9am on Monday, May 18, and will last for six days, concluding on Tuesday, May 26.
The affected stretch covers approximately half a mile of Farmfield Road, between the intersections with Shurdington Road and Salisbury Avenue, as well as Chelmsford Avenue up to St Albans Close. To accommodate traffic, a diversion route will be established via Salisbury Avenue, connecting both ends of the closed section.
The road will be closed daily from 9am to 3pm, ensuring that school drop-off and pick-up times remain unaffected. Warden Hill Primary School gates open at 8:35am and close at 3:15pm, allowing normal access for parents and students outside closure hours.
