** Road closure in during August and September 2025 **
Please be aware that the A378 in Langport, under the railway bridge, will be closed for August and there will be 3-way traffic lights during September. If you are visiting Bow House for an appointment or class please could we ask that you allow extra travel time to help us stay on schedule and ensure everything runs as smoothly as possible during this time.
See below for more details.
⚠️The A378 in Langport will be closed from 4-31 August to allow Network Rail to undertake crucial maintenance on the railway bridge.
A signed diversion will be in place while the road is closed directing traffic via A372 – Othery – A361. To help reduce disruption Network Rail will be carrying out works 24 hours a day with the quieter aspects taking place overnight.
The 54 bus will be running a reduced service during this time. Passengers will need to dismount and reboard on the other side of the works. Access under the rail bridge suitable for all pedestrians will be maintained at all times.
While the A378 is closed and to mitigate the risk to the grade 1 monument on The Hill, there will be manned temporary traffic signals either side of the Hanging Chapel. To ensure traffic can pass safely there will also be a parking restriction in place, indicated by no parking cones. However this does not form part of the official diversion and we would ask that all non local traffic follow the signed route.
