More than 230 steel bars have been used to repair and stabilise a collapsed embankment along a busy route.
The 130-metre embankment along Upper Stanton in Stanton Drew, Somerset, had partially given way, putting the road at risk.
Bath & North East Somerset Council (BANES) said the work, which cost more than £430.000, has now secured the road for the long-term.
Councillor Lucy Hodge, Cabinet Member for Sustainable Transport Delivery, thanked residents for their patience and said the council had “significantly increased the banks integrity”.
The work included improving the local drainage and resurfacing the road.
Leftover timber from the project was donated to a local business and 1,000 flower bulbs have been given to Stanton Drew Primary School, who will help to replace the plants removed from the embankment during the work.
“The safety of our residents is always a top priority. We’ve significantly increased the banks integrity, ensuring the long-term safety of the highway and the people that use it” added Ms Hodge.
