DORSET COUNCIL
Temporary Closure of Round Hill Coppice, Loscombe, Dorset
DORSET COUNCIL intend, not less than seven days from the date of this notice to make an Order under Section 14 [1] of the Road Traffic Regulations Act 1984, as amended. All vehicles will be prohibited from proceeding along Round Hill Coppice Melplash to Sunny Farm, Loscombe (USRN 43201296), and Loscombe to Lancombes Cross, Loscombe (USRN 43200548), Dorset, between the Junctions of Ridgeback Lane and Mythe Hill Quarry Entrance Mapperton to Junction Twinways Lane, a distance of approximately 1600 metres. The Order is needed in order to comply with health and safety regulations which require the provision of safe working areas and to minimise the likelihood of danger to highway users. It will come into operation on 22 July 2021 between 09:00 and 16:00 and will remain in force for 18 months and can be extended with the approval of the Secretary of State for Transport if necessary; however, it is anticipated that the works will be completed by 29 July 2021. The road will be open outside of these times and also over the weekend. Please note that the dates are a window of opportunity and the road may not be closed for the whole duration stated above. The closure is also weather dependant. Even though the dates above coincide, only one road will be closed at any one time.
This Order will enable Dorset Council to carry out carriageway maintenance and resurfacing works.
A locally signed diversion route will be put in place to enable traffic to travel around the closed sections.
If you would like further information about the work being undertaken and access arrangements, please call Dorset Highways on 01305 228100. For further Information concerning this Order, please call the Traffic Team on 01305 221020. Dated: 10 June 2021.
