Temporary traffic lights and lane closures on Manchester Road are expected to cause delays for motorists and bus services until April 2027.
This is a developing story. We'll publish more details as they emerge.
Temporary traffic lights and lane closures are currently in effect on Manchester Road in Rochdale, specifically at the junctions of Silk Street, Bolton Road, Edinburgh Way, and Rochdale Valley Way. These roadworks began on 17 May and are scheduled to continue until 10 April 2027.
Motorists should be aware that these disruptions may lead to increased congestion, particularly during peak travel times. Bus services operating through this route may also experience delays as a result of the ongoing works.
The roadworks are part of a larger initiative aimed at improving infrastructure and traffic flow in the region. However, the extended duration of these disruptions may pose challenges for local commuters and residents.
