You’ll probably have been expecting the Team to have gritted the hill tonight and Jarrod and Ali went up to do it. Unfortunately there is a problem with the Gritter so they’ve been unable to do it. It was our intention to grit tonight, tomorrow and Sunday, it won’t be done so please be careful. Anne
Bridford Parish Council Meeting Agenda 6th January 2020
Gritting Update – Sun 1 Dec
Winter is here! First gritting of the hill tonight thanks to Jarrod and Mick.
We could do with a few more volunteers to help the drivers load up and do the run. If you could help please get in touch 252603. Anne
Planned Road Closure – B3212 @ Farrants Hill – Mon 2nd Dec thru Fri 6th Dec 2019
Devon Highway’s contractor is planning to close the B3212 between Farrants Hill and Perridge Cross (just before the sawmill). The work is to improve drainage and is planned from Monday 2nd December through to Friday 6th December.
The road closure notice doesn’t include any details on the hours so don’t know whether it’s 24×7 or daytime only. Official diversion is, the usual, the valley road to/from Chudleigh.
More details on the road closure – https://one.network/?tmi=10909178
The closure also affects Country Bus 359 (Exeter, Longdown, Dunsford, Moretonhampstead), with a taxi replacement that must be booked in advance. Details for that are http://countrybusdevon.co.uk/2019/11/22/359-longdown/

Valley Road Closures 16th – 20th September
B3193 is planned to be closed between Christow and Lower Ashton at some point from 16th to 20th September to enable surface dressing, stud and white lines to be renewed. Currently scheduled between 09:30 and 15:30. Full details.
B3212 is planned to be closed between Farrants Cross and Culver Sawmill at some point from 16th to 20th September to enable surface dressing, stud and white line renewal. Currently scheduled between 09:30 and 15:30. Full details.
Apparently both roads will not be closed at the same time. However, given the changes 10 days ago on day time works becoming night time works on the valley road, then you would check before you travel.
Back lane from Bridford to Christow planned closure 16th – 20th September
The lane between Bridford and Christow (at the Bridford sewage works end) is planned to be closed between 16th and 20th September to allow BT to fix an internet connection and to do some tree cutting.
