road closure outside yard

[Austen123]

hi, there has been a sign put up today about a diversion on the road leading to yard. surely if u have a obligation to be on the road to see your horse u cna get through? x

Yeah, as far as I know most of the time it'd be access only.. so those needing to get through can, those who don't need to, can't.

When is the road closure date? It should be on the sign- The sign will also tell you who is going the work . IF it is after this weekend then you should ring your District/Borough or County Council- they will be able to give you more details.

Sometimes when Road Closures signs go up it is because there is going to be a full road closure- however- there will be some form of access for you to get through- you may have to stop and explain to the workmen that you need access for horses etc.

Sometimes Full Road Closure signs go up because there is going to be a fair amount of work and (always expecting worse case scenario) something will happen that was not expected and road would need to be completely closed.

This happened a few years ago outside my yard - we had to argue like mad with the workmen. (After a good 10 mins of polite requests and explanations!) They really were not going to let us through. I parked my car in their way and started walking - then suddenly it was ok to drive through I think we just had a particularly grumpy lot though!
