Work to replace Wilmslow's old water pipes with modern plastic pipes is in full flow.
United Utilities are planning to reopen Church Street as work progresses onto Swan Street towards Manchester Road.
Swan Street will need to be closed for a minimum of seven days, after this period one lane of the road will be reopened to allow traffic to flow one way towards Bank Square via the junction with Manchester Road.
The work is expected to take until the end of March to complete.
Peter Dalton, Project Manager for United Utilities, said: "This work is designed to reinforce the overall reliability of the local water network and reduce the risk of leakage.
"The old cast-iron water pipes have served Wilmslow well for many years, but in order to ensure we can continue to provide high-quality water for many more years to come we need to replace them."
United Utilities have announced that when the work is completed, engineers will ensure that any affected roads and footpaths are returned to their previous condition as quickly as possible.
"We know that roadworks are inconvenient and we appreciate that Wilmslow has undergone a lot of utility work over recent times," added Peter.
"We would like to apologise in advance for any further inconvenience this essential work may cause and we thank customers for their continued patience and co-operation."
Anyone with questions about the work can pop in to 'theBoardroom' on Bank Square, every Thursday between 11am and 2pm while the project is ongoing to speak to members of the engineering team.

Here's what readers have had to say so far. Why not add your thoughts below.
Almost all roads are in a poor condition so to return to their previous condition is not a cheery thought, perhaps returning them to a good or acceptable condition would be satisfactory!
