A new bridge is being installed over the M4, as part of the construction of the new Shinfield Eastern Relief Road, by HOCHTIEF (UK) Construction on behalf of the University of Reading.

The M4 will be closed in both directions for five nights to allow the installation of twelve steel beams.

It will be carried out overnight, from 9pm to 6am, when traffic flows are at their lowest.

A clearly signed diversion will be in place via the B3270 and A329(M).

For more information about the work, please visit the South of M4 website.
