Street's roads will have more than their fair share of roadworks in 2021.

Somerset County Council maintains a rolling list of all roadworks taking place in the county on its dedicated Travel Somerset portal.

Some roadworks will involve only minor incursion on the carriageway, or will entail temporary traffic lights.

Others, however, will involve lengthy diversions for both large and small vehicles, meaning motorists will have to plan more times for their regular journeys.

Here are all the new roadworks planned in the Street area in the next 12 months which will involve some form of diversion for motorists.

PLEASE NOTE: all of the information below is sourced from the council's Travel Somerset website. It is correct as of December 15, 2020, and all details are subject to change.

Please note this list does not include ongoing roadworks which began in 2020.
