Dorset Council have received an application from Openreach to close WITCHAMPTON from its junction with Lawrence Lane for a distance of approximately 85 metres in a northerly direction. The closure has been requested to allow Openreach to access telegraph poles to provide fibre overhead cabling. These works are programmed to commence from 22:00,13 November 2022 until 06:00, 14 November 2022.
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 map in the consultation notice (see embedded PDF below or download a copy as a PDF, here) 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 Samantha Paulley by 31 October 2022.
