The construction of a crossing point, near to Grasmere Close on Old Blandford Rd has finally commenced.  Harnham Infant School was successful in its bid for funding as part of its school travel plan, to help children cross the road at this point.

The road will be narrowed to a ‘Pinch point’ to enable pedestrians, mainly school children coming down from the steps, to cross the road easier.

Works will be complete in time for when the schools return after the summer holidays.

Signage and extra street lighting is also part of the plan.
