NIGHT-TIME CLOSURES 8/9 JUNE
A reminder that Dig Street will be closed at the junction with A515 Church Street/St John Street, and A515 Market Place at the junction with St John Street on 8/9 June from 7pm until 6am for pavement and carriageway repairs.
On the night of 8/9 June, Ashbourne Reborn contractors will carry out permanent repairs on Dig street following temporary repairs made by National Grid in December 2025, due to an underground electrical cabling fault.
A signed diversion will be in place using King Edward Street, Station Road, Church Street Ashbourne.
Carriageway surface improvements will be made at the A515 Market Place (southbound only) between its junctions with B5035 King Street and St John Street. Works will be carried out to plane off the existing road surface and lay new, extra hard wearing material to minimise wear caused by lorries turning at the junction.
A signed diversion route will be in place using the B5035 King Street, Hall Lane South bound only, Park Road, Sturston Road, Station Street, Station Road, Church Street, St Johns Road, Market Place. A one-way restriction (southbound only) will be implemented on Hall Lane to accommodate the diversion and to remove conflict with northbound vehicles.
The timing of these works has been carefully chosen by the County Council to minimise disruption with other utility works and to avoid the late May bank holiday.
