Dartmouth Road Closed: Seale Close

Drivers in the Devon area are advised to plan their journeys carefully as roadworks on Seale Close in Dartmouth are set to cause disruption from 7th August 2026 to 11th August 2026. The work, carried out by Devon County Council, will see the road partially closed during this period. Motorists are urged to use alternative routes and check traffic apps for the latest updates.

Seale Close, which lies just outside Exeter, will be closed from 00:00 on 7th August 2026 until 00:00 on 11th August 2026. The work is described as minor, with a medium severity level, meaning it may cause some disruption but not to the extent of causing major delays. Despite this, drivers are still advised to exercise caution and plan their journeys in advance.

The disruption is set to affect those travelling through Dartmouth, with motorists advised to use alternative routes, such as the nearby A380, to avoid the roadworks. Those using GPS or satnav systems are recommended to update their routes in advance, taking into account the road closures. Checking traffic apps, such as Waze or Google Maps, will also provide up-to-date information on traffic conditions and allow drivers to make informed decisions about their journey.

Motorists are advised to allow extra time for their journey and to be prepared for potential delays. The roadworks are expected to cause some congestion, particularly during peak travel times, so drivers are urged to be patient and to follow the guidance of traffic management signs. Those who can work from home or adjust their schedules to avoid the disruption are advised to do so.

While the roadworks are a necessary part of maintaining and improving the local road network, they undoubtedly pose an inconvenience to drivers. Devon County Council is working to complete the work as quickly and safely as possible, with the aim of minimising disruption to motorists.
