TAUNTON'S Victoria Gate Car Park will be closed from Monday to Friday next week during resurfacing work.

Patients will still be able to walk to the nearby GP surgery and NHS health unit, which will remain open throughout the week.

People will also be able to use on-street pay and display parking in Victoria Gate Road.

A Taunton Deane Borough Council spokeswoman said the essential work will "improve the condition of the car park".

She added: "The work is pre-planned and part of the on-going programme to maintain and improve car parks in the borough.

"Local residents have been informed and the council would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused."
