Current Disruptions on the M4

The latest updates indicate that this will be the final full closure of the motorway for the construction of a new bridge. This bridge, originally built in 1966, was demolished in March after engineers identified structural cracks.

Expected Timeline for Reopening

  • The A432 is set to reopen to the public in early 2026.
  • The construction project is critical for improving safety and traffic flow.

Transportation authorities are working diligently to minimize disruption during the construction period. Travelers are encouraged to seek alternative routes and remain informed of any updates regarding the motorway’s status.
