There will be extensive road works at Canford Bridge which spans the river at the bottom of Oakley Hill starting immediately and members/visitors travelling north from Poole on Gravel Hill will need to take the A35 westbound to the end of the Wimborne Bypass and then take the 3rd exit to enter Wimborne from the west on Julians Road.

See the council website for further information about this bridge work for details, duration and a map.
