FULL B3083 ROAD CLOSURE AT BERWICK BRIDGE - MID-MAY

Full Berwick B3083 Road Closure at River Till Bridge - mid May to early July.

Wiltshire Council is planning to carry out works on Berwick's 2nd bridge. The bridge’s condition has deteriorated and is in poor condition and is now a priority to get work done. The work would involve taking down the existing bridge railings, removing the surfacing and taking down the concrete deck. There will also be a number of large construction machinery on site. On completion the bridge will look similar but the deck would be upgraded to modern standards. This work has to happen and we cannot stop it.

Currently the work is scheduled to start on or around 12 May 2025 and it will entail a full road closure at the point of the bridge for 8 weeks. There will be a pedestrian walkway but otherwise no access.

We will be liaising with Wiltshire Council to cover the many factors that will affect residents and businesses. Some of these are listed in the Village Meeting Minutes. If you have any specific concerns, please contact Julian, Bill or Carolyn.
