Turton Road, Bromley Cross road closure on Sunday, April 12
Turton Road will be shut on April 12, between where it meets Chapeltown Road and Shady Lane, for maintenance work on the railway bridge at Bromley Cross Railway Station.
Traffic will be diverted via Blackburn Road and Crompton Way for those looking to pass between Tonge Moor and Bromley Cross.

Commenting on the road closure, Cllr Nadim Muslim, representing Bromley Cross and Egerton, said: “It’s a bit of a shame we weren’t told any sooner, but hopefully on a Sunday there won’t be any delays.
“They’re looking to do some safety work on the bridge, nothing majorly serious just to update stuff like some signage.
“Cars will have to have longer diversions but pedestrians will still be able to pass by the bridge by going through the train station.”
Nearby, Chapeltown road was closed for three days last month due to electrical repair works after homes and businesses lost power.
