There are also bridge strengthening repairs planned to the railway bridge in Romiley. This will result in a weekend road closure at this point for a number of successive weekends in January, starting next week. There will also be rail replacement services on Saturday 8th, Sundays 9th, 16th, and 23rd January and 27th February. The data we have keeps being adjusted but looks like it will involve road closures from late Friday night to midnight Sunday. It’s worth checking again and also while the work progresses on the Network Rail web site.
