Road closures: four for Trafford drivers over the next fortnight

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

And three of them are expected to cause delays of between 10 and 30 minutes.

The latest expected works list, with notes from National Highways, shows that two closures already in place are expected to carry on this week:

• A5103, from 8pm May 30 to 5am September 30, moderate delays (10-30 minutes): M56 both directions, junction 7 to 6 - lane closures, carriageway closures and slip road closures due to carriageway - reconstruction/renewal.

• M56, from 4.36pm January 13 2020 to 6am January 1 2025, moderate delays (10-30 minutes): No closures allowed unless 5k away between, junction 8 and M60 both directions.

And a further two closures will begin over the next two weeks:

• M56, from 9.30am June 19 to 3.30pm June 23, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M56 westbound, junction 6 lane closure for electrical works.

• A556, from 8.30pm June 29 to 5am August 19, moderate delays (10-30 minutes): M56 both directions, junction 7 to junction 5 - lane closure for structure - maintenance.

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