Major roadworks on Williams Avenue by Dorset County Hospital could cause delays

From Monday, 15 September 2025, Dorset Council will begin work to improve the junctions at both ends of Williams Avenue to make them safer and more accessible.

The works will be carried out in stages and will see some road sections go down to a single lane, controlled by lights. The work is expected to continue until April 2026 and is expected to cause some delays. Please bear this in mind when travelling to Dorset County Hospital for an appointment or to visit a loved one and allow yourself extra travel time.

You can find more information about the scheme on Dorset Council’s website.
