Tuesday 15 September shapes up as a busy day for Bristol travel, with Hengrove road works and an evening match at Ashton Gate
A daytime road closure diverting bus service 45 in Hengrove coincides with a 7.45pm Championship fixture at Ashton Gate, while several council meetings are also scheduled across the city and wider region.
Tuesday 15 September is set to bring a convergence of travel disruption and events in Bristol and the surrounding area.
During the day, Hengrove Lane in Hengrove will be closed from 09:30 until 15:30, affecting First Bus service 45, which will divert via Wells Road and New Fosseway Road in both directions [5]. The stops at Cadogan Road, Clatworthy Drive and Loxton Square will not be served, with passengers directed to Airport Road or Fortfield Road instead [5].
In the evening, Bristol City host Lincoln City in a Sky Bet Championship fixture at Ashton Gate, kicking off at 7.45pm [7]. The club says matchday shuttle buses will operate, dropping off and collecting from Winterstoke Road outside the stadium, and has published travel information including route maps, timetables and pricing [6]. Supporters who cannot attend have been encouraged to forward their season tickets to friends and family through the club's ticketing account [1].
The same date also sees several local government meetings in the region: Bristol City Council's Public Safety & Protection Sub-Committee meets at 10.00am [2], Tewkesbury Borough Council's Planning committee at 9.30am [3], and Cheltenham Borough Council's Cabinet at 6.00pm [4]. Separately, the agenda has been published for the Avon and Somerset Police and Crime Panel, which meets the following Tuesday, 22 September, at 10.30am [8].
