Higher Charminster, from the ford for around 10 metres, continues to be closed until July 9 to enable Dorset Council to carry out replacement works to the footbridge alongside the ford.

Wessex Water will be working in South Court Avenue today (Monday) and tomorrow (Tuesday) and traffic lights may cause delays.

Stop/go boards will be in operation on Station Road, Crossways, on July 7 and 8 for Dorset Council to carry out works.

There will also be traffic lights in Icen Way on July 8 and 9 while Wessex Water carries out work. This may cause delays to traffic.
