🚗 Turners of Roborough Remains Open for Business as Woolwell to the George Improvement Works Continue 🚗
Plymouth's long-established Turners of Roborough car dealership is reassuring customers that it remains fully open and accessible while major improvement works continue along the Woolwell to the George stretch of Tavistock Road.
✅ Open as usual
✅ Fully accessible
✅ Friendly, expert team on hand to help
The family-run dealership, which has served motorists across Devon and the UK for more than three decades, is continuing to trade throughout the ongoing roadworks and is finding innovative ways to help customers browse and buy their car with minimal disruption.
🚘 Looking to the future
Turners of Roborough is also looking firmly to the future. Over the next two years, the dealership will undergo significant redevelopment, including a remodelled layout, and will continue to serve customers from the established site it has occupied for many years.
🏗️ The redevelopment plans form part of wider road improvements to the Tavistock Road corridor. Planning permission has been secured for the dealership to expand further north, allowing highway improvements and future road dualling works to take place.
💬 Jonathan Talbott, Director of Turners of Roborough, said:
"We want customers old and new to know that Turners of Roborough is very much open for business. While the roadworks may change how people travel along Tavistock Road, they do not change our commitment to delivering excellent service and helping people find the right car for them."
"This is an exciting time for the business. We’re working closely with Plymouth City Council through the road improvement scheme, and our own redevelopment plans demonstrate our commitment to Plymouth and to the community we have proudly served for the last 32 years."
"Whilst the roadworks are ongoing, it's very much business as usual for us. Nothing has changed, and we're pleased to say that the way in which traffic has been managed is a real credit to the team at Plymouth City Council and Balfour Beatty. In all honesty, we've noticed very little difference to the flow of traffic and day-to-day access."
We're here as always and remain committed to making things as easy and convenient as possible for our customers. Whether that's through flexible appointment times, online enquiries, virtual vehicle walk-throughs, or delivering your new vehicle directly to your door, we're on hand to help in whatever way suits you best. Drop in at any time - the coffee is always on."
Since opening in Plymouth in 1994, Turners of Roborough has built a reputation for trusted customer service and strong local connections. The dealership says its long-term investment in the site reflects its confidence in the future of the area and its ongoing commitment to customers across Plymouth, South Devon and Cornwall.
Customers can continue to visit the dealership, make appointments, browse vehicles and access aftersales services throughout the construction period.
🙏 Jonathan added: "We've been part of the Plymouth community for more than three decades and we're here to stay. Our message is simple: we're open, we're investing in our future, and we're looking forward to welcoming customers throughout this period and beyond."
🚗✨ Turners of Roborough will continue to share updates on the Woolwell to the George scheme as well as its ongoing development plans via its website and social media channels.
