PROPOSED TEMPORARY CLOSURE OF BRISTER END, YETMINSTER
I have received an application from Openreach to close BRISTER END, YETMINSTER between the entrance to
Springmead Farm and Hillview Farm, a distance of approximately 270 metres. The closure has been requested to
allow Openreach to build joint box. These works are programmed to commence between 0930 and 1500 from 18 May
2026 until 20 May 2026.
Openreach will publicise the road closure in a number of ways: they will place information boards on the road in this
area to inform the travelling public of the works; they will carry out a letter drop to local residents directly affected by
the works; and they will sign a vehicular diversion route using the local road network. The following map shows the
extent of the closure and the diversion route.
This document is for information only, however if you have any concerns about this proposal, please contact Izzy
Rowland, (trafficteam@dorsetcouncil.gov.uk) by 04 May 2026.
