Road closures: two for Stockport drivers over the next fortnight

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

And one of them is expected to cause delays of between 10 and 30 minutes.

The latest expected works list, with notes from National Highways, shows that two closures are due to start over the next two weeks:

• M60, from 8pm December 4 to 5am December 5, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M60 anti-clockwise J2 to J27 - lane closure for communications.

• M56, from 9pm December 4 to 5am December 16, moderate delays (10-30 minutes): M60 both directions J1 to J25 - lane closures and slip 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.
