The road from Timberscombe to Dunster will be closed again from Monday (10th May) until Friday 28th May, due to ‘structural works’ by Somerset County Council. The closure will be just after Duddings Holiday Cottages on the A396.
If you enjoy backing up narrow lanes and squeezing your car past other vehicles, you could try taking the nearest alternative routes via Knowle Lane or through Wooton Courtenay (not appreciated much by the WC residents!).
However, the best option would be avoid going to Minehead during this period or taking the scenic route over Dunkery.

Somerset: Flubot, Text Message Scam.We have been made aware of a new text message scam called Flubot. This is a malicious piece of Spyware that is installed on your Android device once you receive a text message asking you to install a Tracking App due to a ‘missed package delivery’. The ‘Tracking App’ will actually steal your passwords and other sensitive data, whilst sending messages to your contacts to do the same. The text message asks the user to click on a link (PLEASE DON’T), doing so will take you to a website where you will be prompted to download the App (DEFINATELY DON’T). Please forward any scam messages to 7726 (SPAM on your keypad), which is a free reporting service. Although this scam only appears on Android phones at the moment, Apple IOS users should remain alert as this could apply to these handsets at some point. Please see the link below for information on the National Cyber Security Website. https://www.ncsc.gov.uk/guidance/flubot-guidance-for-text-message-scam |
