M61 closures: Road closures to be in place for works
The latest expected works list, with notes from National Highways, shows that one closure already in place is expected to carry on this week.
Each evening from 8pm to 5am there will be moderate delays until February 15 on the M61 in both directions between junction four for the Watergate Lane Interchange and eight for the Chorley North Link Interchange.
This is due to a lane closure for horticulture works including cutting and planting.
And a further two closures will begin over the next two weeks.
From 8pm on January 3 to 6am on January 12, there will be slight delays of under 10 minutes on the M61 southbound between junctions three for the Worsley Interchange and five for the Hunger Hill Interchange due to a lane closure for communications.
And from 8pm on January 8 to 6am on January 20 there will be slight delays of under 10 minutes on the M61 in both directions at junction six.
This is due to a lane closure for works on behalf of the council.
National Highways is responsible for maintaining motorways and major A roads, so closures of smaller roads will not be included in their schedule.
