Mancunian Way will see closures in place from tomorrow (Monday, January 23) as part of 'planned works', with drivers urged to find alternate routes. Lasting until Friday morning (January 27), a daytime lane closure as well as overnight closures are likely to cause delays in and around the city.

An overnight closure will take place on the Mancunian Way (A57M) eastbound, from London Road to Fairfield Street. A further daytime closure of one lane will be in place on the Mancunian Way between London Road and Hoyle Street.

Ahead of the works, drivers are being reminded of the overnight diversions in place and are being urged to find other routes with the lane closure expected to cause delays.
