A SERIES of roadworks is expected to cause delays for drivers on Woodhead Pass.
Starting on Monday, work to improve the safety of A628 will include a new right-hand turn outside the Dog and Partridge pub, as well as new pedestrian crossings, traffic signs and footpaths to improve the safety of walkers on the Barnsley Boundary Walk.
Lane closures, 24-hour traffic lights and reduced speed limits of 40mph will be in place, and two weeks of overnight closures will be required to finish the work. The project is expected to be completed by mid-April.
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."
