Archaeological excavations were undertaken close to the where the new northern roundabout will be location to prepare for upcoming works. In April and May 2020 Cotswold Archaeology’s dig found a range of pottery pieces which had been suspected to have been buried.
As part of our early ground works investigations, we found over 500 rounds of old ammunition left over from the World War Two. This old ammunition was safe to handle and dispose of responsibly. We’ll continue to share updates on this page.
We’ve recently been able to start work on the northern part of the scheme to begin work on the roundabout there. We have been working on drainage and earthworks. This will allow us to begin other work which will ultimately benefit the drivers and the local community.
