UPDATE: The carriageway has since reopened – however, there are some delays in the approach to Junction 17.


The M4 is closed westbound as emergency services respond to a traffic collision.

The carriageway is shut between junctions 17 (Chippenham/Cirencester) and 18 (Bath).

Wiltshire Police and other 999 crews are in attendance.

It’s not yet clear if anyone’s been seriously injured or how long the road will be closed for.

A spokesperson for National Highways wrote: “Traffic is currently stopped on the #M4 within J17 #Cirencester due to a collision.

“Wiltshire Police are currently on scene. Delays are beginning to build on approach to the incident.”
