Please see below regarding road closures

🚧 IMPORTANT ROAD CLOSURE - DAVENTRY ROAD 🚧

Please be aware that Daventry Road will be closed from 19th February to 11th March (approximately 3 weeks).

During this time:

➡️ Access to The Park Centre will be via Broadwalk only.

🚗 If you’re driving to The Park, please adjust your route and approach from Broadwalk.

⏳ There may be occasional short delays where access is temporarily limited.

The usual Park Centre entrance will be maintained throughout the works.

These essential works are taking place as the new school build approaches completion – an exciting milestone for the community.

We’re sorry for any inconvenience caused and appreciate your patience and understanding while this work is carried out.

🚌 BUS DIVERSIONS DURING ROAD CLOSURE

During the Daventry Road closure, all buses will be diverted via Ilminster Avenue and Salcombe Road.

Unfortunately, this means they will not be stopping outside The Park Centre during the works period.

If you’re travelling by bus to visit us, please head to the nearest stops at Melvin Square or Salcombe Road to catch your service.

Thank you for your patience while these essential works are completed.

Thanks in advance for planning ahead and helping things run smoothly!
