Inefficiently, there is no direct interconnection between the industrial estates, the railway station (site of road-rail interchange) and the major road, the A36.

Since the sixties, unsuitable twisty inner roads through this old market town have been the route of the A350 for long-distance HGVs as well as local traffic.

Oversized vehicles slowly make their way around tight road junctions.

With damaging effects for the people and the shops in Westbury.

There is a genuine need for a direct highway standard heavy goods vehicle road that will go via the industrial and trading estates and Westbury railway station.

But would you really have wanted a bypass on the wrong, eastern, side...?

A bypass which would not have actually resolved the real needs.
