Title: A419/A417 question Post by: No Longer Posh Red on Monday, May 19, 2025, 16:13:42 We're off up to Telford tomorrow, and just wondered if the Road from Swindon to the M5 at Gloucester is OK at the moment.
I recall somewhere that there were issues with the 419 around Swindon & that the 417 was a bit of a mare around Birdlip. Any help gratefully received Title: Re: A419/A417 question Post by: 4D on Monday, May 19, 2025, 16:47:12 They're doing some major works there, but it takes slightly longer than normal due to speed restrictions

There’s 2 sections with 40mph speed limits at either end with average speed cameras so just make sure you don’t go over 40 in the parts with the speed restrictions.

Should be able to avoid by going down the old birdlip hill. As said delays generally no different to before, but there are occasions it's terrible. Evenings from Gloucester towards Swindon is great. https://www.leckhamptonwithwardenhill-pc.gov.uk/news/2025/05/a417-weekend-closure |
