Road closures: five for Wigan drivers to look out for over the Christmas period
Drivers in and around Wigan will have five National Highways road closures to watch out for this week.
And two 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 five closures are due to start over the next two weeks:
- M6, from 8pm December 15 to 5am December 16, moderate delays (10-30 minutes): M6 northbound, junction 25 to junction 26 - carriageway closure for carriageway - reconstruction/renewal on behalf of National Highways.
- M6, from 9pm December 17 to 5am December 18, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M6 northbound, junction 24 to junction 25 - lane closure for horticulture (cutting and planting) on behalf of National Highways.
- A580, from 9pm December 18 to 5am December 20, moderate delays (10-30 minutes): M6 northbound, junction 23 to junction 23 - lane closure for horticulture (cutting and planting).
- M6, from 9pm December 26 to 5am December 27, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M6 southbound, junction 27 to junction 26 - lane closure for barriers - permanent on behalf of National Highways.
- M6, from 9pm December 29 to 5am December 31, slight delays (under 10 minutes): M6 northbound, junction 25 to junction 26 - lane closure for barriers - permanent on behalf of National Highways.
National Highways is responsible for maintaining motorways and major A-roads, so closures of smaller roads will not be included in its schedule.
