South Gloucestershire Council have proposed the complete closure of Ruffet Road and Coalsack Lane, as well as other local roads, without prior consultation as of 30th April 2018.

Details of the proposals can be found here:- https://consultations.southglos.gov.uk/consult.ti/T437_443_ETO_2018/consultationHome

We have been as alarmed at this as local residents, both the complete closure and the failure to even discuss with local stakeholders ideas or options first.

This will inevitably impact those users of the golf club that travel along Ruffet Road/Coalsack Lane when getting to the Clubhouse, not to mention the potential for increased fly-tipping, etc on the newly created redundant stretches of road, and we have filed a strongly-worded response to the Council regarding our business concerns over the closures.
