One of my major responsibilities is being Chairman of the Dorchester Transport and Environment Plan working group.  We are developing plans that will result in a wide range of improvements for pedestrians and smoother traffic flows across the town as well as enhancing the town’s environment.

I am therefore particularly pleased that the first part of the DTEP plan has now been completed with new safer crossing points at Top O’ Town, a new crossing on the Bridport Road and the resurfacing of High West/East Streets.

Next will come a loading ban on lorries at busy times along the High Street and a new crossing of the Bridport Road in Old Poundbury.

Then in 2017 we should see the completion of the works to properly pedestrianise the whole length of South Street.
