Stage four – Wednesday 10 September – Worcester to Bristol

Race director Mick Bennett: “A short hop over the border sees us return to Worcester for the first time since 2008, with a stage start in the city centre. The finish to stage four is one we’re very excited about, with the Tour of Britain returning to Bristol for the first time in its modern era. We have a great finish on Clifton Downs lined up, which will include a testing one kilometre climb inside the final three kilometres and another chance for the teams to shake things up again.”
