  • Quarry Gardens, Cam

Cllr Dom Morris, cabinet member for Highways and Flooding said: “We’re rolling out resurfacing of rural roads, as well roads in our towns and cities. 

“We carry out resurfacing all-year-round, working day and night, at more than 150 sites across the county.

"Improving your roads is a top priority for the council. 

“That’s why we’re delivering a Highways transformation programme and we are working at full steam to create better journeys for everyone in Gloucestershire.”
