Overnight road closures planned on A379

Overnight road closures will be needed on the A379 on the outskirts of Exeter for three evenings next month.

As part of the current work at Trood Lane junction there will be night time closures on the A379, between Ellacott Road and the Devon Hotel Roundabout, starting on the evening of Tuesday 9 July.

On the nights of Tuesday (9 July), Wednesday (10 July) and Thursday (11 July) the road will be closed from 7pm until 6am the following day.

Changes to traffic management arrangements will be made on the first night (Tuesday 9 July), with drainage improvements carried out over the following two evenings.

Residential access to Ellacott Road will be maintained on the A379 northbound and access to the Devon Hotel will be maintained on the A379 southbound.

The work is part of the ongoing south west Exeter infrastructure developments to support the delivery of around 2,500 homes and employment land.
