Multiple roads will be closed this month whilst works are ongoing.

Arnold Road in Bromley Cross will be closed from January 31 for approximately five days whilst telecoms works take place.

The road closure will prohibit all traffic from proceeding on Arnold Road from Darwen Road to the back of Darwen Road north, to enable works in the area.

An alternate route for traffic will be signposted with diversions in place so motorists can travel around the area with ease.

There will be other telecoms works on University Way from today, January 11, for approximately three days.

The road closure will prohibit all traffic from proceeding on University Way to turn left onto Deane Road, to allow telecoms works to take place.

An alternate route for traffic will be via Mayor Street, Spa Road and Moor Lane.

To ensure recycling bins are emptied during the works, council officials are asking residents to present them at the nearest accessible point to ensure that they can be emptied on the usual collection days.

Council officials say they want to apologise for any inconvenience the closure may cause.
