THE access road by the Wilkinson store leading to the Emery Gate car park in Chippenham will be closed next week.

North Wiltshire District Council is working with the store to warn people who regularly use the car park.

Although the car park will remain open, drivers will have to use the other access off Emery Lane.

The access road is used by drivers using the Emery Gate shopping centre .

Now, new access arrangements are being installed, including bollards, which will give greater protection to pedestrians using the road.

The road will be closed to all traffic from 4pm on Sunday to 8pm on July 18.

Once the road re-opens, no parking will be allowed there.
