M4 Margam

Work to carry out essential bridge maintenance to five structures on the M4 between junctions 37 and 38 –will commence on 09/06/2025 and continue over a duration of six months.

The work will be carried out over a six month programme in four main phases, with works continuing to phases two and three.

Preparatory works to switch the contraflow system's direction.

24 July 20:00 - 29 July 06:00

  • Overnight closures over five nights in both directions between junction 37 Pyle and junction 39 Groes.

Phases two and three - Contraflow works

29 July - 21 November

  • Phases two and three - Bridge works with contraflow system in place and traffic flow reduced from three lanes to two lanes in each direction
  • A 50mph speed limit will be in place during this time for safety.
  • Further details on later phases of works will be published closer to the time.

For Phases 1 to 4, no diversion route will be necessary with all traffic, with junctions 37 and 38 remaining operational.

During the isolated full closures to install traffic management measures, a diversion route will be implemented utilising the A4229 and A48.

Westbound, traffic will be directed off the M4 at Junction 37 and via the A4229 and A48, re-joining the M4 at Junction 39.
