Buckled Wiltshire road that excited skateboarders finally repaired

£5m project restores B4069 near Lyneham after landslip that briefly turned it into a playground for thrill-seekers

A stretch of country road in Wiltshire that was so badly buckled in a landslip it became a hotspot for skateboarders and BMX riders has finally been fixed three years on.

The 140-metre stretch of the B4069 was broken up and shifted 25 metres downhill after heavy rain in February 2022.
