Main Link Road from Taunton to Taunton RFC to be closed for 12 months.

After a tough 18 months at Taunton RFC all that are involved here at the club are now looking forward to seeing familiar faces back here on matchdays and for other functions and events.

‍

Unfortunately the main road which links Taunton to Taunton RFC is to be closed for up to 12 months for essential works. Taunton rugby club is still very accessible through diversions that have been put into place.

‍

If you are from Taunton we would advise heading across the large roundabout by Wickes and over the overbridge. Head towards and through Monkton Heathfield, When you reach the roundabout before the club there is plenty of signs and cones up regarding the closure but you can go through this and gain access to the club via Hyde lane.
