Lower end of Dorchester’s South Street now open for pedestrians

As scheduled, a pedestrian walkway opposite the site of the Gorge Café fire on Dorchester’s South Street opened on Friday afternoon.

The walkway safely reconnects both sides of the street. Shoppers can now also get to South Street via Hardye Arcade, with Scrivens, Specsavers, and Amplifon now accessible.

The building owner’s private contractors (Jordan and Faber Ltd) will continue works within the new cordon boundaries. Dorset Council’s Building Control Team will continue to closely monitor their progress, and we will provide updates when appropriate.
