One of the busiest roads in Blackburn is closed to all traffic due to roadworks.
Whalley Range just off Whalley New Road is closed to all traffic as essential utility works take place in Bastwell.
Traffic cannot turn onto Whalley Range from Whalley New Road. Any traffic heading along Whalley Range is being diverted onto Cedar Street. Signs have been placed at Earl Street alerting drivers of the closure.
The section of the road between Cedar Street and Whalley New Road is due to reopen on November 16.
There are also long delays for drivers heading out of Blackburn at Larkhill.
Four-way temporary traffic lights have been installed at the roundabout with Brookhouse Lane.
