A number of roads will be closed at the end of this month and at the start of March to allow water works to take place.

A road in Deane will be closed from Tuesday, February 27 for approximately five days while works are undertaken on Caledonia Street.

The road closure will prohibit all traffic from proceeding on Caledonia Street from Willows Lane to the back of Willows Lane, to allow water works to take place.

An alternate route for traffic will be via Cambria Street and Hibernia Street to allow residents to travel around the area with ease.

And a road in Great Lever will be closed from Monday, March 4 for approximately three days while works are undertaken on the back of Parkfield Road.

To ensure recycling bins are emptied during the works, council officials are asking residents to present them at the nearest accessible point to ensure that they can be emptied on the usual collection days.

Council officials say they want to apologise for any inconvenience the closure may cause.
