It is hoped the road will help alleviate major traffic problems around a village in North Somerset.

A man remains in hospital after a crash between a moped and a van.

Police officers are appealing for witnesses of the crash to come forward.

North Somerset Council is committed to delivering the project by 2026.

Contractors had been preparing to construct Banwell bypass in May but left the scheme in March.

North Somerset Council say they "remain committed" to delivering the £89.2m Banwell bypass.

The fire service says the cause of the fire is thought to be accidental.

Construction of the Banwell bypass can begin, using compulsory purchase orders to acquire the land.
