A6 Buxton Road, Disley – Highway maintenance works

We will be carrying out gully cleansing works along A6 Buxton Road, Disley, between the junction of Buxton Old Road and Redhouse Lane. To minimise disruption and avoid repeat visits, we will also carry out additional planned maintenance within the closure times, including lining works, general signage maintenance and isolated carriageway repairs. 

When it's happening

The work will take place from 27 January 2025, and will take approximately 5 days to complete between the hours of 09:30 to 14:30, weather dependant. Parking restrictions will be in place for the duration of the closure.
