There has been disruption on one of Wiltshire’s busiest roads while crash repairs are carried out.

A lane closure has been put in place on the northbound carriageway of the A350 at Chippenham, between the Malmesbury Roundabout and the turning for Kington St Michael.

This has caused some queues of slow traffic heading towards junction 17 of the M4.

The roadworks began at around 9.30am on Wednesday, November 19, and are due to continue until 3.30pm.



Wiltshire Council has listed the work as being necessary to repair damage caused during a road traffic incident.

The latest roadworks add to the array of projects ongoing on the key roads around Chippenham.

Major construction works continue to take place on the A350 between Bumpers Farm Roundabout and Lackham Roundabout, as the final stretches of the bypass are turned into a dual carriageway.

There are also ongoing roadworks on the A4 at The Pheasant Roundabout, which have contributed towards queues of slow moving traffic on the road for weeks.
