route will again be subject to public consultation. Chippenham and the M4 Wiltshire Council have been awarded money to complete the dualling of the Chippenham bypass, meaning nearly 6.5 miles of continuous dual carriageway. There is also funding for a scheme to completely signalise the M4 Junction 17 roundabout and build a left turn lane between the A350 and the westbound M4. Future status The A350 from the M4 to Warminster has been designated as part of the new Major Road Network, a network of secondary roads which are not classed as Strategic but are classed as locally or regionally important. In addition, Highways England (now National Highways) are developing a South Coast to M4 route strategy which reports in late Summer 2022. The current preferred route is the A36 to Bath, then the A46 to the M4. Due to the traffic situation in Bath, Highways England may propose de-listing the current route and adopting the A350 instead; this may release funding for further works between Poole and the M4.
