Diversions in place after a section of the A358 collapses

The A358 between Musbury and Bosshill Cross remains closed following the collapse of part of the carriageway.

It is understood that a section of the highway, which runs over a water conduit, near Axmouth Football Club’s ground, has subsided.

Diversions are in place at either end of the road between Bosshill Cross and the Golden Hind pub, at Musbury.

County highways officials are due to issue an update on the repairs shortly.

It is understood the road could remain closed for up to a week.
