Mill House Bridge A523, Adlington

A523 Mill House Bridge, between Adlington and Macclesfield

Following a bridge inspection on Mill House Bridge, Adlington, we needed to undertake comprehensive repairs to a collapsed section of the arch that provided support to the southbound traffic lane.

Progress update

Repair works on Mill House Bridge are now complete. Our teams have succesfully stitched back the bridge arch and strengthened the foundations, ensuring the structure remains safe and resilient for years to come.

Activity will continue on site over the coming days, as we remove the temporary river diversion, temporary river crossing and carry out the final site clearance.

Further information

• The temporary lights are necessary to protect the safety of both members of the public and our workforce.
• Further delays are to be expected while plant and materials are brought into site as the traffic will have to be held.
• Pedestrian access is unaffected.
• Cyclist access will be maintained through the traffic lights.
• Local businesses remain unaffected.
