Wessex Water is set to undertake essential sewer repairs in Radstock for two weeks in August, with road users being urged to carefully plan their journeys during the work.
A short section of the A367 Wells Road near the centre of the town will be closed to through traffic for two weeks from Monday 4th August.
The repair work will be carried out between the junction with The Street and junction with the private road leading to 12-20 Wells Road.
An official diversion, using the A362 (Somervale Road, Radstock Road, Station Road, West Road), A37, and the A367 (Bath Road) will be place, with the project due to be completed by Friday 15th August.
A Wessex Water spokesperson said: “Road closures are always a last resort but, in this case, necessary to allow to maintain the safety both of our working team and the public while it is completed.
“We have written to customers in Radstock about the work and also been in touch with Radstock Town Council.
“We are aware that the routes of buses will also be impacted and would urge users to contact the relevant bus company for further information about services.
“Advanced warning signs will be in place around the area to warn road users about the closure and our team will be working at weekends and extended hours to try and complete the project as quickly as possible. We’re sorry for any inconvenience caused.”
