A37 @ pylle

[youngatheart]

as the title says just come through here and it isnt working so try a different route if you can

[al_coholic]

Can you elaborate at all please as many of us will indeed be due to come through there

[cejx]

more info please.

And, can someone remind me - is the CP entrance north or south of Pylle?

just South...entrance to Blue Route and East carparks is down Pylle Lane (opposite Easton Lane - which is usually closed to traffic)

[al_coholic]

I am guessing the issue is just north of Pylle at the A371/A361/A37 mash up which has been a mess for the last few years, but I may be wrong

[lord stradmor]

traffic routing has been completely messed up this year.

Anyone approaching from wells is being directed down eight miles of back roads through the villages - the same route as the organised cycle rides.

Take a flask of tea and some kendal mint cake boys and girls - its a complete balls up.

So to clarify - are you saying it'll be a nightmare goin north on a37 towards the car parks?

[youngatheart]

sorry for late reply. coming from shepton just passed the garage in pylle they have set up a traffic system to allow caravans to turn right into site but this is not allowing the traffic to freeflow passed this junction. now i hope they have learnt since yesterday but considering the site isnt officially open yet it was chaos with a line of caravans all trying to turn right , on wed and i can see some problems if it stays the same :angry:

from evercreech i dont think any are only small roads around site usually are

[youngatheart]

Thats the normal entrance to the East Campervan fields. Its not normally that bad because the traffic is all stuck well before there. I imagine there was a load of traders arriving yesterday/today and that made it worse

they have changed this entrance this year gives access to some of the posh camping etc but i hope you are right

i've just gone that route and have been waiting for about half an hour on a country lane. Got up to festival boundary quickly though.

Last year I found a document from Mendip council listing all the road closures, anyone got a copy from 2011?

Here you go, (thanks to R0cky)

Road Closures

Confirmation that Easton Lane is closed from 8am on Wednesday. I also have a bad feeling that the top road out of Ditcheat is closed as well, but Wraxall Road is open
