Everite Road in Widnes to be closed for more than a month

Everite Road in Widnes will be shut to traffic from April 6.

Halton Borough Council has issued the order under the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984.

The closure is necessary for carriageway resurfacing, and the prohibition is to ensure the smooth execution of these works.

The order will be in effect for a maximum period of 18 months from the start date.

However, it has been confirmed that the actual closure is expected to be over 33 days.

During this period, the road will be marked with appropriate traffic signs, and vehicles will not be allowed to enter or proceed along the route.

Alternative routes will be clearly signposted for motorists' convenience.

Residents and businesses in the area should plan for potential disruptions and allow extra time for their journeys.

The council has urged everyone to be patient, as the roadworks are necessary for the long-term benefit of the area.

They hope the inconvenience will be short-lived and will improve the overall quality of the road network in Widnes.
