ROAD CLOSURES

​

Unfortunately Carnival requires a lot of roads to be closed.

Each year in order to make carnival happen we need to close a number of roads in and around Burnham Town Centre.

We know that closed roads are an inconvenience to everyone which is why we keep roads closed for as short a time as possible, whilst still maintaining a safe area for the event to take place.

​

WE ESSENTIALLY HAVE THREE SEPARATE CLOSURE PERIODS.

​

  • Queen's Drive and the Frank Foley Parkway will be closed all weekend from Saturday evening.

  • The Esplanade, South Esplanade and Pier Street on Sunday evening for the fireworks.

  • Most town centre roads Monday evening from 4pm until 1am on Tuesday morning. 
    However we will try to delay closing these roads until 1815 wherever possible and we will reopen them as early as possible after carnival has finished and the crowds have cleared.

We also have some parking restrictions in town throughout the weekend to keep emergency and diversion routes clear.
