THROUGH traffic will be barred from using a section of a residential street in Taunton next week during "essential work" by Wessex Water.
The company has written to people living in Portman Street saying work on the water supply work is being carried out from Tuesday (May 23) until Friday (May 26).
In the letter, Wessex Water says: "This will involve closing the roads to all through traffic to ensure the safety of the public and our staff.
"We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause."
It includes a map outlining where the road is closed and work is taking place, along with details of a diversion.
The letter adds: "Alternative routes will be clearly signposted and every effort will be made to maintain pedestrian access through the works.
"If you live where we are carrying out work, you will still have access to your property.
"Every effort will be made to keep disruption to a minimum and complete the essential work as quickly as possible."
