URGENT TEMPORARY CLOSURE OF HIGH STREET, YETMINSTER

DORSET COUNCIL has received an application from Openreach to close BRISTER END, YETMINSTER between its junction with Alton Mead Lane and its junction with Bailey Ridge Lane, a distance of approximately 400 metres. The closure has been requested to allow Openreach to lay new duct. These works are programmed to commence from 0930 until 1530 on 19 June 2023.

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 June 2023
