All roads leading into Pewsey village, including the main A345, will be closed this evening from 7pm to 10pm and on Saturday, September 21, from 6pm until 10pm for carnival events.

A diversion will be in place on the A345 from Prospect (north of Pewsey) to Manningford Bruce (south of Pewsey), but this is not suitable for lorries and coaches. The road closures are for tonight's carnival beer race and the carnival procession on Saturday. Anyone not attending the events should avoid the Pewsey area, say police.
