A FOOTPATH in Stratton is to be closed for six months.

A section of the Pathfields Footpath (Footpath 33) will be closed from this Monday, January 18, until July 18, 2021, due to the works taking place at the Cavanna Homes site.

Users are being redirected to the footpath running past Stratton Primary School and the Gregson Centre. The prohibition will be in force 24 hours a day, weekends included.

The Traffic Order will come into operation on Monday and will remain in force for 18 months. However, this order can be extended by the Secretary of State for Transport, but the works are expected to be completed in July.
