Temporary Closure of West Coker Hill, Chinnock Hollow to Coker Hill Bridge and High Street
Somerset Council in exercise of its powers under Section 14 (1) of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 as amended, propose to make an Order prohibiting all traffic from proceeding along West Coker Hill - from 977 metres west of the junction with Churlands Close, south-westwards incorporating Chinnock Hollow to Coker Hill Bridge and High Street, to the junction with College. A total distance of 938 metres. This Order will enable Kiely Bros to carry out pre-surface dressing patching works on behalf of Somerset Highways. Solid diamond symbolization will be used on the diversion route and will not clash with any other Kiely Bros works within the area.
The Order becomes effective on 23 October 2025 and will remain in force for 18 months. The works are expected to commence on 2 November 2025 and last until 4th November 2025 between the hours of 19:00 - 05:00 for a total of 2 nights.
