Temporary road closure in Southdown for gas main works

A temporary road closure order comes into effect in Southdown in Bath later this month so that gas main upgrade works can be carried out.

A Wales & West Utilities van

Southdown Road will be closed from its junction with Lymore Avenue to the junction with Oriel Grove.

The order begins on Tuesday 26th August. Wales & West Utilities will be working for an anticipated 12 weeks, but the order will be in place for six months.

The road will only be restricted when traffic signs are in position. Access will be maintained for residents.

The alternative route for drivers will be via Lymore Avenue, Lymore Terrace, Coronation Avenue, Sladebrook Avenue, Englishcombe Lane and Southdown Road, and vice versa.
