Part of the M56 will close for a weekend next month for final upgrade work. The motorway will be shut between 9pm on Friday September 9 and 6am on Monday September 12.
Following this, the road will be open to traffic at 60 mph with extra lanes running both east and westbound, in place of the old hard shoulders.
The eastbound M56 will be closed from junction 9 at Lymm interchange with the M6 to junction 5 for Manchester Airport. The westbound carriageway will be closed from junction 5 to junction 8 at Bowdon.
