We’ve carried out a vast amount of work on schemes to reduce journey times, improve safety, support new housing developments and provide the transport network we need to help businesses thrive. More than £5m has been spent on major improvements to key roads and key junctions, including the Horsey and Hospital roundabouts in Yeovil and the Huntworth roundabout at junction 24 of the M5. A further £900,000 has gone into upgrading traffic signals, with big schemes in Taunton, Frome, Dunster and Bridgwater. More than £2m has been spent on nearly 40 Small Improvement Schemes across the county – community driven projects to tackle local highways problems. On top of that, we have invested over £30m in repairing and resurfacing the highway network. This vast programme of works has included the resurfacing of the A3088 Cartgate link road into Yeovil, the A30 in Chard and delivery of the largest surface dressing programme ever in Somerset. This represents a huge investment of capital funds (money we Congratulations to all Somerset can’t spend on the Council’s day-to-day running costs) in the county’s infrastructure. Even in these times of massive budget students who recently received pressures, making sure we have a quality road network is critical to the county’s future growth and prosperity.
