A series of road closures have been scheduled near the Lidl supermarket in Great Sankey. The closures will take place from Monday, November 25, each night between 7pm and 7.30am. These closures are necessary for resurfacing work in preparation for the installation of two new Toucan crossings on Burtonwood Road and Whittle Avenue.
The affected roads include Whittle Avenue from its roundabout with Lingley Green Avenue in a north-easterly direction to its roundabout with Burtonwood Road/Fortress Boulevard/Westbrook Way. Additionally, Burtonwood Road will be closed from its junction with Charon Way to approximately 20 metres south of its roundabout with Westbrook Way/Whittle Avenue/Fortress Boulevard. Westbrook Way will also be closed from its roundabout with Westbrook Crescent to its roundabout with Whittle Avenue/Burtonwood Road/Fortress Boulevard. Finally, Fortress Boulevard will be closed from its roundabout with Whittle Avenue/Burtonwood Road/Westbrook Way to the entrance of the Lidl Supermarket.
These closures are essential to ensure the safety of pedestrians and motorists in the area. The new Toucan crossings will provide a safer way for pedestrians and cyclists to cross the road, promoting active transportation and reducing the risk of accidents.
Local residents and businesses in the area should plan their routes accordingly during the scheduled closure times. Alternative routes and diversions will be in place to help minimize disruptions. It is recommended to allow for extra travel time if your journey is affected by these closures.
The resurfacing work and installation of the crossings are part of ongoing efforts to improve the infrastructure and accessibility in the area. The new crossings will enhance connectivity for pedestrians and cyclists, making it easier and safer for them to travel around the neighborhood.
Overall, these road closures and upcoming crossings near Warrington Retail Park are a positive development for the community. By investing in safer and more accessible infrastructure, the local authorities are working towards creating a more sustainable and pedestrian-friendly environment for all residents. Stay informed about the closure schedules and plan your travels accordingly to avoid any inconvenience during this period of construction and improvement.
