Fordingbridge High Street partially reopened - here's all you need to know

Fordingbridge's high street has now partially reopened, as phase four of the roadworks are now underway.

The road has been affected since Monday, June 10 when three way traffic signals during the daytime were used while kerb replacement works took place.

Since Thursday, June 13, a 24 hour continuous road closure has been in place. That road closure will now only be in place overnight.

Community refill shop The Green Gram said: "There's been a lot of frustration with the lack of information about the progress of the roadworks.

"However, it should make a big difference to the High Street once the work is completed."

Many other businesses on Fordingbridge High Street were concerned about the impact of the road closure, and the Journal spoke to All The Cool Stuff, Gourmet Grocer, Carl Hillwood hair and beauty and Avon Valley Community Matters.

The final phase, from Monday, July 1 - Friday, July 12 the same road will be closed between 7pm - 6am as the existing gully and manhole covers will be renewed and strengthened.
