Further to above, National Grid have provided more information. They have been to site and suspect there is an underground burn off on the cable, between PL 29 & PL 28. To resolve they would be required to excavate part of Bath New Rd and they intend to arrange this works during January. We are sorry for any inconvenience caused by this delay and shall pass them the comments about the parked cars.
