M6, M53, M56 and M57 motorway closures beginning October 24

Parts of the M6, M53, M56 and M57 will close over the coming week.

Motorways in Merseyside will see closures this week (Monday, October 24 - Sunday, October 30) as National Highways continue to repair the regions roads. This week there will be weekend closures overnight on the M57 which are expected to cause delays for motorists.

National Highways are still carrying out repairs between junctions one (Tarbock Interchange) and two (Prescot) of the M57 after trying to complete the work for two years. Despite attempts to repair the road, the carriageway continues to deteriorate with potholes and other issues forming regularly.

National Highways undertook an investigation and found a deeper and more extensive resurfacing was needed. The team are planning to resurface over 13 miles of carriageway and said without the work the road would "continue to worsen, meaning more regular working being required in future".
