Motorists are being warned to expect disruption with "abnormal loads" set to pass through the Cotswolds.

Gloucestershire Constabulary will be escorting a series of abnormal loads to Moreton this week.

It is not clear yet what the loads are but police have said they require an escort as they are five metres wides.

The escort will begin on the A429 from Warwickshire in mid-morning on Wednesday, April 12.

It will then turn left onto the A44 before arriving at the Stockwells construction site.

The movements are expected to be concluded by late afternoon.

Police have said that while they will look to keep traffic disruption to a minimum, motorists are advised to avoid this route during the relevant times or plan their journey times accordingly.
