Wiltshire Council says concern over the A360 Black Dog Crossroads, near West Lavington, has been growing amidst an increase in reported collisions. During this trial, a barrier will be installed to prevent cars from using the route, alongside signage warning drivers. The council also plans to realign the crossroads in 2025, following the completion of the necessary land purchases.
