Drivers face more disruption this week as the A530 Middlewich Road between Nantwich and Crewe is to close for surface dressing.

The road will be fully closed at various times between July 3 and 6 for works across the entire carriageway.

The closure is between Sainsbury’s roundabout in Nantwich and the Marshbank Roundabout at the Premier Inn/Beefeater.

Closure on July 3 will be from 9am to 4pm to allow for works, and again between 8pm and 6am on July 4-6 for sweeping.

It’s the latest in a series of major roads undergoing surface dressing this summer across Cheshire East.

Cheshire East highways said: “From May until August, we will be undertaking our surface dressing programme across the borough.

“Surface dressing adds a new layer on top of an existing road surface and is a well-established, cost-effective preventative maintenance treatment.

“We visit the road a few times, to prepare the road, carry out the surface dressing and we return to sweep up the excess chippings and reinstate the road markings.

“We cannot give you an exact date as these works can’t be undertaken in high temperature or during rain however, signs will be displayed nearby to notify you of the road closures and will provide dates and times of the work and it’s duration.”
