TARA has received the following information:

EXMOUTH TRAFFIC ALERT:  

Salterton Road, Cranford Avenue, or Littleham Road.

A massive, long-term gas network upgrade is kicking off on June 8th, and Wales & West Utilities says it will stretch well into NEXT YEAR.

The project means road closures and traffic lights are on the way – starting with a major directional closure on Cranford Avenue/Littleham Road.

A direction road closure on Cranford Avenue / Littleham Road, where motorists won’t be able to access Cranford Avenue from Littleham Road (8 June – 3 July)

Traffic lights on Littleham Road (1 – 4 September)

Wales & West Utilities Roxanne Whittaker is managing this work and said:

 “We are committed to keep the local community updated of our progress as we work to upgrade our gas. We’ll continue to work closely with the local authority, and commit to keep communities informed as projects are planned and delivered.

“We understand our work can cause disruption, but it is essential to maintain a resilient gas network that households and business can rely on every day.

By completing this work now, barring any emergency repairs, we can avoid returning to the area and causing further disruption to the local community for decades.”
