Neighbours and community groups looking to hold street parties in May to celebrate the King's Coronation should check whether they may need a temporary road closure.

The Council requires 6 weeks to process road closure applications for street parties on no-through roads, and 12 weeks for closures for special events. This means that time is running out for planned celebrations in early May.

There is no charge to apply, and full details can be found here: www.mendip.gov.uk/article/10708/Guidance-on-holding-a-Street-Party.
