Cheshire East Highways has carried out water jetting and CCTV survey works to the drainage systems along Adlington Road and have found a defective United Utilities system that needs further investigation. This has been reported to them.
The road closure will remain in place for this morning (Thursday 12th) until two-way temporary signals are installed to allow the road to partially re-open.
