Notice is hereby given that the Wiltshire Council has made an Order to close temporarily to all traffic: 

B3098 (Part), Urchfont; from its property known as No.02 Ballingers for a distance of approximately 131m in a westerly direction. 

To enable: Wiltshire Council to carry out bobcat patching works. 

Alternative route: via B3098 (unaffected length) – A360 – A342 – B3098 (unaffected length) and vice versa. 

The closure and diversion route will be clearly indicated by traffic signs. 

This Order will come into operation on 28 October 2024 and the closure will be required between the hours of 19:00 and 23:00 for 1 night. It is anticipated that the works will take the stated duration to complete depending upon weather conditions.

Speed is important because it plays a part in every death and injury on our roads. The formula is simple: the higher the speed the harder the crash and the greater the risk of death and injury. This year’s Road Safety Week theme, ‘No Need to Speed’, is a reminder to everyone of how the speed they travel affects other people.
