A section of Gravel Lane will be closed for up to two weeks to enable United Utilities to carry out urgent sewer repairs.
The urgent works to prevent foul flooding are scheduled to start today (Monday 8th May) and anticipated to continue until Sunday 21st May.
As a result Gravel Lane will be closed from the junction with Knutsford Road to the junction with Beechway. The works will take place between 9am and 5.30am.
Pedestrian access to any premises situated within the temporary closure will be maintained at all times and access for residents and emergency vehicles will be maintained where possible.

And it is only going to get worse, much worse. The ever increasing number of homes being built in the area with the attendant builders cars being left anywhere & everywhere for their convenience, not the convenience or road safety of house holders or other road users.
Cheshire East council needs to start developing &/or redeveloping its car parks and looking for other ways to relieve the coming clogging of the town's roads.
Will it? No it will not, saying it doesn't have the funds. All CEC is interested in is encouraging ever more building to increase its council & rate tax incomes - let the public live with it is their philosophy.
However it does have the funds for employing highly over paid council officials together with their highly "imaginative" pay-offs when they are fired.
A new rethink is desperately needed by the council's incompetent leadership. Will it happen? Judging by its previous history, no.
The continuing wholly inadequate and failed CEC policies means a desperate change of voting tact is needed, it is tine for Independents to have a say at saving Wilmslow from the mess CEC has made.
RoW is looking at strategies to save the town from gridlock and hope to present these to the electorate before the 2019 elections.
I quite agree and we are working on it. I have agreed with Highways that they will look at the section of Gravel Lane near Knutsford Road. We also need a long term strategy, which will include a new multi storey car park. The business case is being developed for a new multi-storey car park, and other ways parking can be provided for commuters. In the shorter term, work is being planned to make junctions safer.
