Permits & Access for Caravan Transport in Somerset
The notifying authority is Avon & Somerset Police. The M5 gives fast access to Burnham and Brean, the A39 serves the Exmoor coast at Blue Anchor and Minehead, and the A38 and A371 reach the Mendip sites. Exmoor approaches turn narrow and hilly, so the transporter may need to come at a park from a particular direction.
Static caravans are abnormal loads, so the STGO notification to Avon & Somerset Police and the mandatory escort are handled by your transporter as part of the job — typically allow 5 to 10 working days for processing.
