MOTORISTS should avoid Blackburn Road from January 16 while maintenance and reconstruction work is carried out to Wayoh Bridge.
Emergency repairs were carried out to bulging walls in summer but remedial work is now due on the arches. Drainage work is also being carried out between Moorside Road and the bridge. The section of road will be closed until February 26 and a diversion will be signposted via the A666. There will also be temporary amendments to some bus routes.
The work is expected to be completed by March.
