Emergency roadworks to repair fault in Plymouth

Emergency roadworks to repair a fault on the electricity network will start in Plymouth on Monday 24 January, with work expected to last ten days.


Western Power Distribution is to close the inbound entrance to Bretonside at the junction with Exeter Street from 9.30am from Monday. This work will ensure the continued security of electricity supplies to customers around the city, and enable staff to complete work as quickly and safely as possible.
Traffic will be diverted along Exeter Street, The Viaduct, Kinterbury Street, Bretonside and right onto Vauxhall Street. Outbound traffic through Bretonside will be open but restricted to one lane at the exit onto Exeter Street. 


Team Manager Shaun Lang said: “We know these are busy junctions and would like to apologise to motorists for the inconvenience. We are working as fast and as safely as we can to complete the works and hope to have the repair and reinstatement of the road completed within ten calendar days.”
