Road works signage

Overnight closures are scheduled on Rochdale Road and Saddleworth Road in West Vale, for essential maintenance. 

From Monday 13 March both roads from Long Wall up to the junction with Stainland Road will be closed from 10pm – 5.30am to allow for the planing and resurfacing of the carriageway surface. 

The closure is necessary to protect both road users and the workforce, but access for pedestrians and emergency vehicles will be maintained at all times. The work is due to be completed by Tuesday 28 March. 

Through traffic will be diverted via Elland Bridge on to the A629 Calderdale Way, to Stainland Road and vice versa. 

Calderdale Council’s Head of Highways and Transportation, Steven Lee, said: 

“Keeping our roads in good condition is really important and this work will ensure that the surface is fit for the amount of traffic travelling on this route. 

“We’ve scheduled this maintenance overnight to limit disruption and the work will be completed as quickly as possible.”
