Milnrow Road at its Junction with Crompton Way – Saturday 23rd and Sunday 24th Feb 2013

As part of the continuing operation to lay a high voltage electric cable along Crompton Way, it will be necessary to close Milnrow Road at the junction with Crompton Way, such that traffic will not be able to gain access to Crompton Way or to Milnrow Road towards Shaw. At the same time, the temporary traffic signals will be in operation.

The closure is for the weekend of 23 / 24 February 2013.

Once work has progressed past this junction and the junction is re-opened to traffic, it will be necessary to close Salts Street at its junction with Milnrow Road until the cable laying has progressed onto Linney Lane. This is necessary on safety grounds and to enable traffic flow along Milnrow Road at the junction to be more easily managed and reduce delay times. Details of this will follow in due close.

During work in the vicinity of the zebra crossing on Crompton Way, near to the Salts Street / Linney Lane junction, the crossing facility will remain open for use at all times.
