Seymour Road closure 20th to 28th July
Seymour Road will be closed for the dates above due to urgent drainage works. The closure will be all day and night.
Whilst Seymour Road is not in Podsmead, it does serve the ward via the number 10 bus. The bus will need to be diverted slightly whilst the work is carried out.
There will be no parking on the road at any time during the works.
This information is from the Stagecoach website:
Closure of Seymour Road, Gloucester
20th to 28th July 2020 (24/7)
Service 10 Diversion
Service 10 will need to divert as follows:
Service 10 towards Lower Tuffley
Instead of turning left at Kwik Fit onto Stroud Road, the bus will continue along Bristol Road. When it gets to the traffic lights at Lidl, it will turn left into Tuffley Avenue, where it will rejoin its normal route by continuing along Tuffley Avenue and turning right into Podsmead Road.
Service 10 towards Gloucester City Centre, Barnwood and Cheltenham
The service towards Gloucester City Centre, Barnwood and Cheltenham will serve the same diversion route but in the opposite direction.
Service 10 will serve all of the stops on the diverted route.

This seems to be 2 months out of date, can you tell me when the works will be complete and whether or not the road will be completely resurfaced (Desperately needed) once the drainage works have been carried out?
Hi thanks for the question. This is not in my city council ward but the road services Podsmead as a route for the number 10 bus. As I understand it, the work has been delayed due to drainage issues and service connections. You could email highways@gloucestershire.gov.uk to ask for an update, or there may be some information on the county council website, http://www.gloucestershire.gov.uk. There are structural problems with Seymour Road which has made it prone to potholes and subsidence. Best wishes, Sebastian
