Midhurst Road Closure for Six Weeks
- Jim D (18th Aug 2025 - 14:58:21)
Hi
Just been turned back by a “few Heavies” at the Size construction site. (Hollycombe House). Advised that they were closing the road for six weeks. This surprised me as I use the road a lot and there were not warning notices in recent weeks. Got home and looked this up, and copies of the closure order are copied below. It is going to close.
This will cause significant additional traffic and hassle.
CAUSE
INFORMATION FOR ROAD USERS
Closure in force
All the time
Name
Midhurst Road -PJ012S5871
Description
Road Closure from Hollycombe House to The Old Stables for urgent bridge repairs, drainage works, trenching works and vegetation clearance
Date
18 Aug - 13 Oct
Emergency access will be maintained at all times.

It is really poor no advance warnings i travel to midhurst several times a week and it is very inconvenient not sure whats going on but it is changing the country effect of the area , guess i should be a multi millionaire.

The bridge before Watercress Line bridge at Alton was closed for "repairs". Look at that area now.

Not the end of the world, it isn't much slower to go via Camelsdale.
The road does need the drainage sorting and is very overgrown

Shame it's the Hoolycombe steam extravaganza this weekend - hope it doesn't affect the event for them.

I'm sure the road will be open for that, anyone would think Hollycombe own the road. As bad as Goodwood's authoritarian road closures.

@Rob - it will be a lot slower going through Camelsdale with the Haslemere Road being closed as well! Presumably drivers will have to go up the A3 to Hindhead and then pick up the Camelsdale route at Shottermill. Bit of a dogleg!
