Response from the council:
Electricity North West had planned to do works on Sunday 26th January 2014, close to the Devonshire Arms which included a temporary road closure. However, these works have now been cancelled, and will be rescheduled for a later date. I have asked Electricity North West to remove the signs.
When the works have been rescheduled full details will be posted on the Council Website and advance warning signs will be put in place.
