Proposed Temporary Road Closure, A3052 and Monmouth Street

Road closure sign next to wildflower bank

Dorset Council have received an application from Openreach to close various roads in Lyme Regis.

  • A3052, between its junction with Pooles Court and 11 Church Street, a distance of approximately 200 metres.
  • Monmouth Street, in its entirety.

The closures have been requested to allow Openreach to carry out fibre cabling works. These works are programmed to commence between 2000 and 0600 from 6 October 2025 until 9 October 2025.

Openreach 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. 

If you have any concerns about this proposal, please contact Izzy Rowland, trafficteam@dorsetcouncil.gov.uk, by 21 September 2025.
