Truro is Cornwall’s administrative and retail centre, and its busiest corridor is the A390 running west past the Royal Cornwall Hospital at Treliske to Threemilestone and Chiverton Cross on the A30. That strip carries the hospital’s traffic, a park and ride, the Threemilestone Industrial Estate and the large Langarth Garden Village development, where new roads and housing are being built over a number of years.
East and south of the centre, Newham Industrial Estate lines the river and the A39 heads to Falmouth and, in the other direction, towards the A30 at Carland Cross. Long-running construction along these routes, plus the usual resurfacing and utility works in a compact cathedral city, keeps demand for site and highway sweeping fairly constant through the year.
Coverage in and around Truro
Threemilestone, Highertown, Treliske, Malpas, Tresillian, Probus and Chacewater are covered with the city, and operators in mid Cornwall routinely travel to Perranporth, St Agnes and the Roseland side as well. Cornwall has a limited number of sweepers for a long county, so bookings are confirmed individually and earlier enquiries tend to fare better.
