Temporary Road Closure: 

Temporary Road Closure:   Brook Street, Great House Street and Jubilee Terrace, Timberscombe.

The works are expected to commence on 28th October 2024 and last for 5 days (09:30 – 15:30) to enable Openreach to carry out cabling works. 

The contractor has indicated that access for Emergency Services through the site is permitted on this occasion.

I have contacted Highways regarding residents’ access and they say –

Openreach will be carrying out cabling works in the area. The works will only be 0930-1530, and the road will be clear at all other times. Cabling is non excavation works. 

Openreach have already advised that pedestrian and emergency service access will be maintained, residential access should not be a concern either, albeit there may be a few minutes delay while the operatives make the site safe to pass.”

Do you live upstream from the pub?

This piece of wood was fished out of the water from under the bridge by the pub. A second piece was reported but had already washed downstream by the time I arrived.

If you live upstream please check your boundaries for loose wood and secure them firmly.

Wood like this has the potential to catch other vegetation and cause a serious blockage and possibly flooding if it is trapped under the bridge.
