CLOSURES on the M4 this weekend are likely to impact road users as a major upgrade reaches its final stages, National Highways has warned.
The road will be closed between junction 6 (Slough) and junction 8/9 (Maidenhead) from around 10pm on Friday, December 2, and reopen by 6am on Monday, December 5, while work is carried out on the Thames Bray bridge and various other finishing works on this section of the upgrade.
Traffic will be diverted onto the A308M, the A308, the A332 and the A355.
Variable speed limits introduced earlier this year will continue to operate on the M4, with some sections starting to return to the national speed limit.
A new camera system is now fully operational, in addition to supplementary traffic officer patrols which will continue to monitor the road while National Highways decommission the temporary CCTV and free recovery service.
The M4 upgrade is expected to fully open in the next few days.
