The A354 is a primary route in England which runs from Salisbury in Wiltshire to the Isle of Portland in Dorset, a total distance of 51 miles (82 km). From Salisbury the road crosses Cranborne Chase and briefly merges with the A350 at the Blandford Forum bypass before crossing the Dorset Downs and merging with the A35 at the Puddletown bypass. Seven miles to the west it splits from the Dorchester bypass and runs south into Weymouth, running alongside Radipole Lake and across a short bridge over Chesil beach onto Portland. For several years a bypass of Upwey has been in the planning stages.
