From 8pm May 13 to 6am May 14, there will be moderate delays on the M61 northbound between junction four and five.

This is due to lane closures and slip road closures for inspection and survey works on behalf of National Highways.

National Highways is responsible for maintaining motorways and major A-roads, so closures of smaller roads will not be included in their schedule.
