Please see below for extracts from correspondence sent to the ADRC Webmaster from one of our members, who in turn had received it from East Cheshire Ramblers. Apologies for the late publication of this information.
There is going to be severe transport disruption in Whaley Bridge from 9th January until 31st March as Network rail replaces the bridge over the main road coming out of Whaley Bridge leading to Long Hill. This may affect the choice of start points for walks, and travel to planned ADRC walks.
The current information is shown below:
In order that engineers can replace the bridge safely, it is proposed that Buxton Road will need to be closed:
- From 9 January – 15 January 2023, there will be single line traffic under the structure.
- From 16 January – 31 March 2023, the road will be fully closed to traffic.
- From 4 February – 5 March 2023, there will be no pedestrian access under the bridge.
Thank You.
