Good news for Tortworth

At long last work is about to start on a roundabout at the Tafarn Back junction where the motorway traffic joins Charfield Hill.

Local Councillor Sandra O’Neill is delighted with the news. “Anyone who has to walk along the main road through Tortworth or even step out on to it has been taking their life in their hands. At least part of it will now have a pavement, along with dealing with this dangerous junction. Local people were beginning to think nothing was ever going to be done”.

The work is funded by Cemex as part of the requirement for their planning permission to extend the area for quarrying limestone at Churchwood Quarry.
