Kingsmead Square and Avon St in Bath are set to close temporarily from July 3 to enable pedestrians and cyclists to social distance and help prevent the spread of COVID-19.
Kingsmead Square and part of Avon Street will be closed to vehicles between 10am and 6pm from July 3 until further notice.
As people often travel across Kingsmead Square by foot or by bike rather than use the footways, a road closure at the busiest times is the most effective way to protect public health rather than the pavement widening measures seen in other parts of the city. Cyclists will still be able to use the roads and essential operations including emergency services and emergency utility works will be granted access when needed. All restrictions will be lifted between the hours of 6pm and 10am.
