Two things generate most of the heavy vehicle movements around Cirencester. The first is housing: the town is taking a major planned extension on its southern side at Chesterton, with years of groundworks, infrastructure and plot construction ahead. The second is sand and gravel, dug from the upper Thames valley around South Cerney and Ashton Keynes, where loaded tippers join public roads all day.
Cirencester stands on the A417/A419 dual carriageway between Gloucester and Swindon, which gives reasonable access from both the M5 and M4. The A429 Fosse Way and A433 serve the smaller Cotswold towns. Beyond construction and quarrying, sweeping is requested for trading estates on the edge of town and for agricultural shows and country events.
Coverage around Cirencester and the south Cotswolds
Cirencester enquiries commonly extend to Siddington, South Cerney, Stratton, Kemble, Fairford, Lechlade and Tetbury. Much of the district is rural, and operators generally travel in from the Swindon or Gloucester direction, so booking ahead and taking a full shift is often the more practical arrangement. Coverage is confirmed each time.
