Dorset Council have received an application from Openreach to close WOODMEAD ROAD, LYME REGIS between its junction with B3165 and its junction with View Road, a distance of approximately 115 metres.
The closure has been requested to allow Openreach to carry out fibre cabling works.
These works are programmed to commence between 0930 and 1530 from 13 October 2025 until 15 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.
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 28 September 2025.
