A route through a South Gloucestershire village will be closed overnight this week for essential repairs. The emergency carriageway resurfacing will take place overnight on Church Road in Frampton Cotterell for five nights from Monday (April 22).

One Network describes the roadworks as: "Patching takes place to repair the road surface, it involves removing a part of the surface around a pothole and placing a new patch of road surface."

A full road closure will be in place from Monday (April 22) to Saturday (April 27), between 7pm and 6am each day. The diversion route will see motorists drive on the A432, Stover Road, Yate Road, B4059 and B4058.
