A village road will be closed for five days of sewer repairs.

Chalky Road in Broadmayne will be closed between number 47 to its junction with South Drove, a distance of around 170 metres.

This closure will begin on Monday, April 22 and is expected to be completed on Friday, April 26.

This closure will enable Wessex Water safe access to carry out sewer repairs in the highway.

The alternative route, which will be sign posted is as follows: Chalky Road - C54 - Came Down Road - Herringston Road - Maumbury Road - B3147 Weymouth Avenue - A354 - A353 - A352
