Urgent repairs on River Exe Viaduct near Tiverton

Overnight road closures will be needed on the A361 near Tiverton next week to carry out urgent structural repairs on the River Exe Viaduct.

An expansion joint at the eastern end of the viaduct, near Bolham roundabout, is failing and needs to be replaced as soon as possible.

The A361 will be closed overnight between Bolham and Ashmill for two nights on Wednesday 26 June and Thursday 27 June from 7pm to 7am for the repairs to be carried out. 

If the work is not completed in two evenings, an overnight closure is also provisionally booked for the evening of Friday 28 June.

During the closures, a signed diversion will be in place via the B3227 and A396.
