Somerset - Temporary Road Closures Due To Phased Pre-Surface Dressing Patching Works

Somerset Council Parish of Stogursey Temporary Closure of Priory Hill and Cockwood Road

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: Priory Hill - from the junction with Monkton Lane, westwards for a distance of 622 metres and Cockwood Road - from the junction with Monkton Lane, eastwards for a distance of 529 metres. A total distance of 1151 metres. This Order will enable Kiely Bros to carry out phased pre-surface dressing patching works on behalf of Somerset Highways (as and when signed on site). 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 9th June 2026 and will remain in force for 18 months. The works are expected to commence on 18th June 2026 and last until 24th June 2026 between the hours of 07:00 - 19:00 for a total of 7 days.
