A BUSY road in Knutsford is closing for roadworks.
Northwich Road will be closed between Canute Place roundabout on Manchester Road and Ladies Mile on Tuesday, November 17.
Work is being carried out to prepare the road for surface dressing, which is planned for next year.
A spokesman for Cheshire East Council Highways said: “The works are expected to take one day to complete.
“We will do our best to keep disruption to a minimum while the works are carried out.
“Under current Health and Safety legislation, a road closure will be necessary at all times during these works for the safety of our workforce and members of the public.
“We understand that there is no right time to undertake this work.
“However, the scheme has been carefully planned to minimise any inconvenience.”
Residents living in the area have been reassured that CEC Highways that access to properties and businesses will be maintained.
However, due to the nature of the works some inconvenience may still occur and there will be times when points of entry will vary.
There may also be delays due to ongoing plant and machinery movements.
Waste management teams have been notified so bins will still be emptied.
Signs will be erected in advance of the work starting and a diversion will be in place.
Businesses, such as Hooked on the Heath fish and chip shop, will open as usual.
