- PROPOSED TEMPORARY CLOSURE OF C69, LEIGH
PROPOSED TEMPORARY CLOSURE OF C69, LEIGH
I have received an application from Openreach to close C69, LEIGH between its junction with Bailey Ridge Lane and Totnell House, a distance of approximately 1370 metres. The closure has been requested to allow Openreach to replace a pole. These works are programmed to commence between 0800 and 1800 from 17 July 2026 until 21 July 2026.
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.For additional information and details of the proposed diversion, click the image below
- Dorset Council crackdown on fly-tipping
Dorset Council has announced a new initiative to crack down on fly-tipping.
As part of the initiative, residents are encouraged to report fly tipping as soon as they spot it. The council advises people to note the location, take a photo if safe to do so, and avoid touching the waste or confronting anyone involved.
Anyone hiring a trader to remove rubbish should check that the individual or business is a licensed waste carrier. https://environment.data.gov.uk/public-register/view/search-waste-carriers-brokers
Reports of fly tipping can be made using Dorset Council’s online form or by calling 01305 221040. Find out more at https://www.dorsetcouncil.gov.uk/scrap-flytipping

These pages include various Parish Council documents, information about contacting your council, along with dates and minutes of meetings. We aim to publish meeting agendas and minutes on this website and also on the village notice board by the village hall.
Members of the public are always welcome at meetings during an open discussion period.
