WEST STREET ROAD CLOSURE - MONDAY 15TH JULY


West Street will be closed on Monday 15th July, from approximately 09.30 to 15.30. The closure is necessary to lay and connect underground power cables in preparation for one-way directional signage which will be installed later this month. The one-way traffic regulation order will come into effect on Friday 2nd August.

This project has been funded through the Area Highways Group, of which I am currently the Chair, at a cost of approximately £6,000 and is intended to improve pedestrian and vehicle safety at the blind junction of West Street and South Street. The work was originally intended to be completed in April; however, there has been a delay as the Council's legal services did not act on the initial instruction.

This issue has now been followed up and resolved. Access to South Street Car Park will be unaffected, during the short-term closure of West Street.
