Temporary traffic lights are scheduled to take place on the B3136 just outside of Shepton Mallet next week.

The lights are due to be used on Lamberts Hill on the B3136 between 9.30am and 3.30pm on Tuesday (August 18).

They are set to be in place to enable BT engineers to carry out a pole test examination.

Other roadworks scheduled to take place in the Shepton Mallet area next week include:

The closure of Old Frome Road either side of the Beacon crossroads is expected to be in place until 6pm on Friday (August 21).

Heading towards Masbury, it should be closed to Golf Links Lane, and in the other direction it is due to be shut for 150 metres, meaning it will be possible to visit Beacon Hill Woods, if you come from the Waggon and Horses direction.

The closures are in place to enable Somerset County Council to carry out surfacing, stud installations, signing, lining, vegetation clearance and other associated works.

Multi-way temporary traffic lights at the junction of Whitstone Road and Whitstone Rise, in use while Wales and West Utilities upgrade a gas main, are scheduled to remain in place until September 14.

On Monday (August 17) and Tuesday, Somerset Highways are due to be replacing streetlights on the Crown Trading Estate.

From Thursday (August 20) to August 24, Bristol Water are set to be installing a new supply on Bolters Lane, Downside, and from 7pm to 10pm on Thursday there will also be stop and go traffic control on the A37 Kilver Street Hill so the firm can access a valve as part of these works.

Finally, Bristol Water's works in Princes Road are scheduled to be completed on Monday.
