Motorists in Lyme Regis should prepare for temporary road closures along the A3052 as essential repair work is carried out.
Dorset Council has announced that a section of the A3052, between its junction with Long Entry and Lyme Regis Museum, will be closed to all vehicles from 24th February, 2025.
The closure, which extends approximately 20 metres, will allow East Devon Scaffolding to erect scaffolding for repair works on two properties. The measures are in place to ensure the safety of both workers and road users.
While the closure is legally permitted for up to 18 months, work is expected to be completed by 4th April.
A diversion route will be clearly signposted, directing drivers via the A3052 – A358 – A35.
For details about the scaffolding and access arrangements, East Devon Scaffolding can be contacted on 01404 46889. To discuss the road closure order, Dorset Council can be reached at 01305 221020 or via their website.
Residents and travellers are advised to plan ahead and allow extra time for journeys during this period.
