MOTORISTS in Bradford on Avon face traffic delays as Wiltshire Council closes Bath Road overnight for resurfacing for almost two weeks.

From Sunday, the road from the Bradford Leigh junction to Bathford will be completely closed from 7pm to 6am, with all traffic diverted through South Wraxall and Box to get onto the A4.

The closure will last every night until October 15.

Wiltshire Council has warned drivers to expect delays, although they hope the clearly signposted diversion will ease congestion. Access will be maintained for residents and businesses.
