Port of Bristol Avonmouth: approach roads and traffic
Port of Bristol Avonmouth (AVO) is one of the 28 ports UK Live Traffic watches. It handles bulk cargo ships. The live map shows the ships arriving, alongside and leaving; this page is about the roads.
Its traffic joins the main roads at M5 J18. Container and bulk terminals send their lorries out all day, so no single ship moves the roads, and the page shows the usual traffic on the approach roads instead.
