Dorset Council have received an application from Sunbelt Rentals agents of Openreach to close Tarrant Rushton via Haggots Cottages, Witchampton between the junctions of Dean Leaze Cottages and Hemsworth – Access to Hemsworth Houser (in both directions), a distance of approximately 605 metres. The closure has been requested to allow Sunbelt Rentals agents of Openreach to access underground structures and overhead cables in the highway.
These works are programmed to commence from 09:30, 8th March 2022 until 15:30, 8th March 2022.
Sunbelt Rentals agents 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 official notice (embedded below as a PDF or downloadable as a PDF here) shows the extent of the closure and the diversion route.
If you have any concerns about this proposal, please contact Nigel Coelho, (trafficteam@dorsetcouncil.gov.uk) by 18th February 2022.
