A358 Taunton to Southfields Dualling Scheme A358 Taunton to Southfields dualling scheme Welcome Thank you for taking an interest in our proposals to upgrade the A358 between the M5 at Taunton and the A303 at Southfields Roundabout. The improvement is needed to relieve congestion, support economic growth and improve the safety performance of one of the busiest stretches of the A303 / A358 corridor that connects the south west to London and the south east. The purpose of this consultation is to: Inform the local communities and stakeholders about our scheme proposals and route options Provide the opportunity for feedback on matters that can inform the decision-making on the preferred route Build on the responses received in last year’s consultation, specifically gathering more information about where any new sections of road should go and how they should tie into the existing A358 The consultation will run from 16 January – 27 February 2018 Highways England – Creative BSR18_0001 98 A6 A697 A68 A697 A1068 A189 A696 A68 A7 8 A105 A7 A6071 A1300 A18 5 4 89 A6 A6 A69 8 0 A129 86 A6 A1231 A689 A692 A694 A690 A693 A692 A6 A69 A596 1 A690 A182 5 A59 A68 A181 A1086 A690 A689 A6 A591 A594 A686 A177 A68 A689 9 A68 A178 A5091 A177 A592 A6 8 A5086 A68 A66 A174 A591 A67 A171 A6 A172 A685 A167 A592 A172 A6 A171 A683 A685 A6136 A591 A5074 A684 A593 A684 A169 A595 A684 A592 A684 A167 A5084 A168 A65 A170 2 A509 A6108 A683 A170 A595 A5093 A65 A169 A1039 A6 A68 7 A165 A19 A683 A168 A614 A61 A6055 A166 A59 A59 A65 A59 A1237 A658 A661 A164 A6 A629 A658 A165 A588 A61 A6034 A614 A682 A659 A659 A58 A1035 A56 A586 A59 A650 A6068 A64 A6 A19 A163 A1034 A586 A614 A59 A583 A6033 A63 A162 A164 A677 A646 A1041 A642 A656 A63 A584 A68 A671 A639 A6 A19 A682 A645 A1033 A61 A6 A645 A59 A614 A681 A675 A666 A565 A161 A58 A58 A1077 A640 628 A A581 A614 A640 A672 A639 A642 A 660 A15 61 A A676 A19 A640 A62 A A5106 A58 A636 628 A638 A18 A5209 A663 A18 A49 A6027 A672 A565 A58 A5147 A58 A666 A18 A577 A6 A635 A18 A6053 A664 A59 A58 A635 A616 A635 A577 A576 A6024 A628 A630 A630 A667 A1084 A6 A627 A570 A577 A46 A614 A56 A579 A6 A629 A572 A18 A5207 A571 A62 A6010 A159 A1031 A506 A580 A580 A161 A635 A630 A565 A574 A5103 A57 A15 A580 A6102 A16 A6 A5058 A58 A560 A61 A551 A569 A57 A631 A570 A34 A631 A626 A57 A631 A1031 A57 A6144 A57 A5300 A5080 A56 A5 149 A552 A557 A50 A620 A157 A533 A157 A551 A6 A56 A50 A57 A5137 A538 A625 A41 A6135 A1104 A559 A523 A6187 A557 A533 A46 A540 A49 A34 A623 A1500 A538 A156 A153 A16 A619 A1111 A57 A621 A61 17 A533 A614 A158 A51 A6 A158 A46 1 A60 A537 6 A1028 A50 A6 A57 A619 A52 A41 A56 A34 A619 A632 A556 A616 A535 A6075 A54 A54 A536 A1133 A158 A515 A6 A617 A6075 A51 A61 A617 A54 A50 A6175 A51 A15 A155 A632 A616 A523 A53 A527 A41 A34 A5012 A530 A51 A617 A16 A534 A38 A153 A6 A49 A534 A60 A5020 A607 A534 A534 A523 A17 A53 A500 A52 A358 A614 A610 A531 A606 A52 A611 A51 A6097 A517 A529 A60 A6211 A6 A1121 Taunton to A530 SouthfieldsA52 duallingA52 scheme A149 A608 A153 A17 A609 A6096 A522 A520 5 A16 A52 A600 A41 A148 A52 A52 A515 A606 A495 A6 A152 A149 A516 A51 11 05 A60 A15 A149 A518 A17 A511 A5 A49 132 A607 A148 A519 A528 A442 A6006 A606 A60 A151 A151 A51 A53 A1078 A495 A140 A513 A511 A151 A514 Background and need A515 A1067 A444 A518 A512 A1065 A1 A149 062 A41 A34 A15 A149 A518 A51 A6121 A1151 A449 A513 A16 A1101 A460 A6 A458 A511 A1073 A5223 A606 A1064 A607 A134 A5 A458 A10 0 4 A606 A1 A14 A1042 A447 A1175 7 The A303 / A358 corridor provides vital east-west connectivityA444 A563 A51 A6 A1122 A11 A563 A1122 A1065 A607 A488 A47 A47 A15 A4169 A464 A452 A6121 A442 A1075 between the south west and London and the southA34 east, however, A461 A4124 A449 A47 A146 A41 A460 A453 A5127 A 462 A51 A47 A563 A490 A1139 A454 A4091 A6 A605 A1101 A458 A41 A10 A459 A4123 there are problems along the route.

  • A History of St. Michael's Church
    A history of St. Michael’s Church Creech St. Michael St. Michael's Church in Creech St. Michael The ancient church of St. Michael stands above the flood plain of the River Tone, in the village of Creech St. Michael near Taunton in Somerset. The church has been standing on this site since at least the 13th century, not only experiencing, but also reflecting, the changes of over 700 years. In 2013 the village of Creech St. Michael is growing fast with on-going new development. It sits just 2 miles from junction 25 of the M5 and 3 miles east from the county town of Taunton. It boasts a number of local industries and a range of facilities. As it stands now the church building presents perhaps an unpretentious and unassuming vista on the edge of the village. In the 14th century it would have dominated the area and played a central role in village life. The early history of the village of Creech St. Michael is uncertain. It is likely that the name comes from the Old English “Muchel Critch” meaning “large creek” (differentiating this village from Little Creech near West Hatch). This seems to be partially confirmed by the fact that the church was dedicated to “All Saints” until at least 1532. It is thought that the title of “St. Michael” is possibly a later corruption of “Muchel”, from the Saxon word for “great” or “large” (this had happened by 1742). What is certain is that Creech St. Michael was a thriving village under the name of Critch or Muchel Critch in the 11th century when William 1 (the Conqueror) commissioned the Domesday Book.

  • Cllr Harrison (Chair), Cllr J Jackson, Cllr D Bradbeer, Cllr T Hosie
    MINUTES OF MEETING OF CORFE PARISH COUNCIL TUESDAY 4th JULY 2017 at 6pm CORFE VILLAGE HALL. PRESENT: Cllr Harrison (Chair), Cllr J Jackson, Cllr D Bradbeer, Cllr T Hosie. Somerset County Cllr John Thorne. David Royle (Treasurer V H Committee). David Orr (representative of Killams & Mountfield Ward) & three members of the public. Cllr Harrison opened the meeting at 6pm and acknowledged the absence of three Councillors. He invited David Orr to speak about the proposed Highways England Ltd scheme for the A358, after which the Agenda would be addressed. David explained how HE Ltd had conducted a misleading consultation, during the purdah period for SCC , meaning the CC couldn't comment. Of the original four options presented to SCC only one option remains, being the cheapest after Stonehenge and Sparkford schemes receive the lion’s share of funding. This option has the least benefits for Taunton and doesn’t assist Henlade or link to J25 Nexus site. HE Ltd would not answer questions at the recent Stoke St Mary meeting. A Freedom of Information Act application was made. (SCCllr John Thorne left the meeting at this time without explanation) It is clear that a ‘closed’ junction is unlikely. Peak summer traffic flows have not been considered in the surveys. The new junction could support 3460 new homes to the south of Taunton, i.e. approaching Corfe. Southbound A303 traffic would flow on to the new route , a sliproad would have to be taken to remain on the old A303/A30.The extended consultation period and the different proposal means individuals can submit another response.The single option would not give economic benefit to Taunton just by virtue of new housing.

  • Link-Up March 2018
    Link–Up March 2018 E-Magazine FROM THE EDITOR … Keep a watch out for boxing hares this month. Up until recently it was thought that it was the male hares that were fighting to win the hearts of the females. However, it has now been shown that is not the case. The so called ‘boxing’ is actually a male and female together. The female is trying to explain to the male that he should “shove off” because she isn’t interested! A bumper filled Link-Up this month with lots to do in all three parishes. In particular, there are many ways to get/keep fit: attend Pilates and Keep Fit classes, take part in a ‘health walk’, go along and help with one of the Clean Up Britain Litter Picks. And to help keep the mind active go along to the coffee mornings/ afternoons, play board games, attend one of the community cinemas, enjoy the am.dram., take part in a quiz at the Gardening Club, attend a meeting, learn bell ringing or have a curry with friends. And for the younger generation make sure you go along to the Youth Club at Kingston which can be enjoyed by all children in the 3 parishes. There is something for everyone this month. So get up out of that cosy armchair. Spring is just around the corner and it’s time to get moving! Annie Trolley Indoors or out, no one relaxes in March, that month of wind and taxes. The wind will presently disappear, the taxes last us all the year.” Ogden Nash LINK-UP is the community magazine for the parishes of Broomfield, Cheddon Fitzpaine and Kingston St Mary.
