HIGHWAYS England has announced a multi-million pound project to improve the A628 Woodhead Pass.
The major road, which connects Barnsley to Greater Manchester through Flouch, will see a raft of repairs and maintenance work as part of the £5m package.
Work to repair several retaining walls has already started, with the full scheme due to finish in March 2021.
The road is set to be fully closed on the weekends of June 5 to 8, and July 3 to 5, with diversions in place.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
