Traffic lights for urgent installation of a gas pipe – Yeovil Road and junction of Barton Gardens, Sherborne DT9 4BE

Between 9:30 and 10am on Tuesday 11 November for approximately 7 days, SGN engineers will be carrying out urgent installation of a section of gas main on Yeovil Road at its junction with Barton Gardens. These works are essential to ensure we can continue to maintain gas pressures and a safe and efficient gas supply to the Sherborne Girls school and properties in close proximity.

Temporary two-way traffic lights - due to the location of the gas pipe in the road, for everyone’s safety temporary two-way traffic lights will be in operation for the duration of our work. To ease congestion and maintain traffic flow, these lights will be manually controlled from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM, seven days a week

Half Road Closure, Barton Avenue - to avoid the use of multi-way traffic lights, we will have a half road closure in place on Barton Gardens, this will mean traffic can enter Barton Avenue from Yeovil but will not be able to exit onto Yeovil Road.

We appreciate how disruptive these temporary traffic lights will be for road users, significant disruption is expected, particularly during peak travel times. Our advice would be to plan alternative routes where possible, plan journeys during off peak timings where possible, allow extra time for journeys and stay updated via Dorset Council’s Road Works Map (https://www.dorsetcouncil.gov.uk/travel-information/roadworks-map). Please circulate this information to interested parties within your area of responsibility.

We are sorry for the inconvenience this work will cause and thank you for your patience and support.
