DORSET COUNCIL has made an Order under Section 14 [1] of the Road Traffic Regulations Act 1984 as amended. All
vehicles will be prohibited from proceeding along PICKET LANE, SOUTH PERROTT between its junction with Manor
Close and Bellamy Farm, a distance of approximately 65 metres. The Order is needed in order to comply with health

highway users. It will come into operation on 28 September 2026 and will remain in force for 18 months, however it
is anticipated that the works will be completed by 07 October 2026.
