TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT FOR ILMINSTER CARNIVAL DAY
7th OCTOBER 2017
The B3168 from Box stone cross to the junction of Townsend will be closed for line up from 2:30 PM.
Townsend out of town towards Kingsstone will be one way out of town. It will be closed to incoming traffic at the junction of Moolham Lane this is to ease congestion. From 2.30pm
East St, Silver St, West St, then onto Station Road will close from 6.15pm, there will be NO parking along these roads at all as it is the procession route.
From Hort Bridge to Riec sur Belon way will be closed from 6.45pm .
Traffic can come out from the Stonemasons and go up Canal way and out of town by going up listers hill, they will not be able to go out of town via Station Road.
There is no parking along Canal way from the Stone Masons to the Dr Surgery roundabout as this is an escape route if necessary.
Ditton st, Listers hill right out to Moolham Lane there will be no waiting cones on one side so there is only parking on one side of the road this is also to ease congestion after the carnival.
In past years when we have had a lot of congestion after the carnival this has been caused by people parking where the yellow cones are. They are put there for a reason, we don’t put them out for fun please. If there are yellow no waiting cones please do not park there.
There are several carparks in the town, we run one at the doctor's surgery along on Canal way parking is available here from 4.30pm
After the carnival if you have parked in any of the side road off the procession route, WHEN you are allowed to move you will have to go in the direction of the Yeovil you will not be allowed to go towards Taunton (South fields Roundabout)
We have no control as to when the roads will re-open this is down to the police and they will not reopen any roads until the crowds have dispersed and they feel it's safe to do so, as public safety is our priority. They will endeavour to get them open as soon and safely as possible.
Parking along the Butts the (B3168) by the Fire station/ Ambulance station. There are no restrictions along here but as it's inside the route you will not be able to get out until the roads reopen then you will have to go towards Yeovil the police quite often cone by the Old Police station and Ambulance station themselves for emergency access.
From the roundabout by spar out to Hort Bridge, this is the dispersal area for the floats. If you park off this road you would only be allowed to leave when safe and it will be in the direction of the floats out towards Southfields roundabout
We hope you enjoy the night as much as we do.
