Drivers in Ramsbottom have been warned to expect delays as a busy main road is due to shut overnight on Tuesday, March 3. A road closure on Bolton Road West (A676) is taking place so United Utilities can carry out urgent works.
The block will be put in place between 8pm to 10pm near the junction with Ada Street so the water company can replace an access chamber cover. Diversion will be in place and will be ‘clearly signed’.
Residents will have to access Ada St, Smith St, and Mary St via Alfred St. Drivers can avoid the closure via Lumb Carr Rd.
Bury Council said the works have been planned in the evening ‘to reduce disruption’, including on the nearby Hazelhurst Community Primary School. But motorists are warned to ‘plan ahead and allow extra travel time’.
The closure coincides with maintenance being carried out by BT between Cemetery Rd and Adelaide St, where temporary traffic lights are also in place.
The works should only take one evening to complete.
