Update Thursday 14th August.
The High Street will be re-opening shortly. We will resume normal route via Portishead High Street from the first bus on Friday 15th August. For the avoidance of doubt, the other diversion on the X5, using the M5 and missing out Walton in Gordano, will remain in place.
Due to roadworks, Portishead High Street will be closed to traffic near Gordano School and as such service X5 will divert away.
