Notice is given that Bath and North East Somerset Council in exercise of its powers under section 14 of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 intends to make an order the effect of which will be to temporarily introduce a road closure in that length of Mill Lane, Monkton Combe from its junction with Church Lane extending south east for approximately 30 metres.
