A SHED load has resulted in one lane of the M4 being closed between junction 17 and junction 16 this evening (August 13).

The eastbound stretch of motorway between the Swindon (W) junction and Stanton Saint Quinton roundabout Chippenham/Cirencester is expected to remain closed until around 9pm tonight.

Although one of three lanes is closed, traffic appears to be coping well.
