Colley Lane Southern Access Road

Construction of a new 950m-long access road to serve the Colley Lane Industrial Estate in Bridgwater, including the construction of two new bridges; one an in-situ concrete arch structure over the Bridgwater & Taunton Canal and the second a 52 m long single span steel composite bridge over the tidal River Parrett. The proposals also include the provision of four retaining walls. The carriageway is to be 7.3m wide with 3.5m wide of footway / cycleway on each side.

The route of the new link road crosses the site of a former brick works, where the clay extraction pit has been filled with cellophane waste. The approach embankment to the new bridge over the Bridgwater & Taunton Canal will need to be constructed over this.

Works associated with the project will also include the provision of drainage, alterations to Statutory Undertakers’ apparatus and the provision of new landscaping.
