PROPOSED TEMPORARY CLOSURE OF COLWAY LANE, LYME REGIS
Dorset Council have made us aware of an application from South West Water to close COLWAY LANE, LYME REGIS between its junction with South Avenue and the entrance to Tesco, a distance of approximately 15 metres.
The closure has been requested to allow South West Water to repair a defective cover. These works are programmed to commence on 01 June 2026 only.
South West Water will publicise the road closure in a number of ways: they will place information boards on the road in this area to inform the travelling public of the works; they will carry out a letter drop to local residents directly affected by the works; and they will sign a vehicular diversion route using the local road network.
The following map shows the extent of the closure and the diversion route.
This document is for information only, however if you have any concerns about this proposal, please contact Izzy
Rowland, (trafficteam@dorsetcouncil.gov.uk) by 18 May 2026.
