A lane on the M61 northbound from junction one to two will be closed from Sunday February 5 at 9pm to February 7 at 5am, with slight delays, as a lane is closed for barrier works.

National Highways is responsible for maintaining motorways and major A-roads, so closures of smaller roads will not be included in their schedule but they apologise for any inconvenience the works may cause.

More information can be found on the National Highways website.
