High winds are causing quite the stir this Christmas Day as the M48 Severn Bridge is closed in both directions! The bridge connects Gloucestershire and Wales, and you’ll need to take an alternative route today if you’re planning on crossing. 🌪️

The Met Office has predicted strong winds, making this closure a key move to ensure safety. But don’t worry about being stuck; all traffic is being redirected via the M4 Prince of Wales Bridge, which remains fully open! 🚗💨
