Gloucestershire County road authorities have announced a comprehensive set of new road restrictions set to take effect in the coming week. The measures, intended to improve safety and traffic flow, include the implementation of lower 20mph speed limits in certain areas, along with the introduction of additional double yellow line restrictions.
Motorists can expect the enforcement of new single and double yellow lines across Gloucester, while road closures will occur in Cheltenham, especially in the town center, as the Everyman Theatre enters its busiest season. Meanwhile, Tewkesbury district will experience lowered speed limits on several routes, with the rollout of new 20mph roads.
Beyond these developments, the Forest of Dean will witness the introduction of new single and double yellow lines, while some rural routes in Stroud may face diversions due to utility upgrades. Additionally, travelers through the Cotswolds can anticipate minor diversions as maintenance work is undertaken on infrastructure such as pipes and broadband cables.
