08:00am – Here’s your daily briefing 👇

Good morning Gloucestershire 👋

It’s a fairly typical Tuesday morning across the county with no major incidents or closures currently being reported on key Gloucestershire routes.

The M5 is moving steadily through the county with no significant disruption visible.

As expected during the weekday commute, heavier traffic is building around the usual hotspots:
• Gloucester – Slow traffic around Eastern Avenue, Barnwood, and parts of the ring road

• Cheltenham – Busy stretches along Tewkesbury Road and town centre routes

• Stroud – Minor delays on approaches and through key junctions

• Tewkesbury / A38 corridor – Pockets of slower-moving traffic

No significant rail disruption is currently being flagged for Gloucestershire services. Trains are expected to operate normally, though minor peak-time delays are always possible.

Bus services across the county also appear to be running as normal based on available information.

As always, allow a little extra time for peak-hour journeys and drive carefully in heavier traffic.
