Road closures: six for Stockport drivers this week

Drivers in and around Stockport will have six National Highways road closures to watch out for this week.

And three of them are expected to cause moderate delays – with motorists facing holdups of between 10 minutes and half an hour.

The latest expected works list, with notes from National Highways, shows that one closure already in place is expected to carry on this week:

• M60, from 9pm April 20 to 5am August 1, moderate delays (10-30 minutes): M60 clockwise and anti-clockwise one to 25 - carriageway closure for Structure - maintenance.

And a further five closures will begin over the next seven days:

• M60, from 8pm July 13 to 6am July 15, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M60 clockwise, junction 2 to 3 - Lane closure for inspection/survey.

• M60, from 8pm July 16 to 6am July 17, moderate delays (10-30 minutes): M60 anti-clockwise, junction 1 to 24 - Lane closures and carriageway closure for carriageway - Reconstruction/Renewal.

• M56, from 8pm July 22 to 5am August 31, moderate delays (10-30 minutes): M56 eastbound, link road closure to A34 northbound, due to gas works.

• M60, from 8pm July 23 to 6am July 24, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M60 clockwise, junction 2 to 4 - Lane closure for Structure - maintenance.

• M60, from 9pm July 25 to 5am August 6, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M60 clockwise and anti-clockwise, junction 1 to junction 4 - Lane closure for drainage.

National Highways is responsible for maintaining motorways and major A-roads, so closures of smaller roads will not be included in their schedule.
