Major refurbishment of Junction 26 and Chelston Link Road

By Wayne Kavanagh Posted: 13/05/25 (Last updated 3 months ago)

Beginning on 16th June and continuing through to mid-to-late September, Somerset Council will be refurbishing Junction 26 of the M5, along with the A38 Chelston Link Road near Wellington. 📅

Due to the depth of the excavations required around the Junction 26 roundabout, the project will involve a full closure of Junction 26 and the A38 Link Road.

If you are travelling northbound, please use Junction 27; if you are travelling southbound, use Junction 25, and follow the A38. If you’re using a SatNav, our postcode is TA21 9JE. 🚐

We’re pleased to see Somerset Council investing in the infrastructure around Wellington to improve road conditions and traffic flow. 😃
