Cheshire East Council is to be allocated more than £180 million to be invested in improving local transport, the Government has announced.
It’s part of the £1.5 billion of reallocated HS2 funding being invested in the North West through the Local Transport Fund.
Dear Editor,
When utility company roadworks overrun, it’s motorists who pay the price with congestion, detours and longer journeys.
This is why I’ve announced a plan to crack down on works by utility companies overrunning.
Government funded highways works are set to take place at major traffic light junctions in Crewe this month, says Cheshire East Council.
The aim of the roads works on the busy Nantwich Road, Gresty Road, and Edleston Road junctions is to reduce congestion.

Planning chiefs are being urged to keep congestion in mind when deciding whether to approve a 44-home development in Shavington.
Cheshire East Council’s southern planning committee will consider a reserved matters planning application from Wainhomes for the development on land behind Chestnut Avenue.
Nantwich and Crewe drivers are being warned that work on the A500 and junction 16 of the M6 will start on Monday 23 June. Two schemes costing a total of £8 million will be delivered by the Highways Agency, one on behalf of Cheshire East Council.
Nantwich councillors are in talks with residents about plans for double yellow lines on two busy streets in the town. Discussions around two key routes – London Road and Millstone Lane – are underway to look at resolving parking and traffic problems.
A £7.5 million grant will help ease traffic congestion for thousands of Crewe and Nantwich drivers using junction 16 of the M6. The funds secured by Cheshire East Council will pay for widening and traffic signals on the northbound slip road and A500 approaches.
