Kingsway Village is an area adjacent to the town of Quedgeley and suburb of Tuffley in Gloucester, in the ceremonial county of Gloucestershire, England. It is built upon the old RAF Quedgeley site.

Kingsway is part of Quedgeley, and is in the City Council Ward of Quedgeley Fieldcourt.[1] As of 2016, under Gloucestershire County Council it is part of the ward of Kingsway.[2]

The Kingsway Local Centre is a collection of shops in the middle of Kingsway.[3]

It has a very active Residents Association, started by local residents Barry Kirby and Clive Barton in June 2008 and it continues to host public meetings, community fun days and other local events. It also lobbies local agencies and organisations involved in the development of the area, on behalf of residents.[4][5]

Many NATO military families who are now based at HQ Allied Rapid Reaction Corps in Innsworth have moved to the area.[6]
