City centre road closures set to enable emergency electricity works

This weekend emergency electricity works are due to start in the city centre.
From Sunday, Electricity North West will be operating around the Shudehill area to carry out emergency electricity works.

While surrounding businesses will remain open for trading it is essential that works take place as soon as possible to prevent any disruption during the festive period.

Works are anticipated to last for roughly two weeks.

To ensure these works can be carried out there will be some temporary road closures to ensure they can take place.

Road closures will be in effect along:

  • Shudehill
  • Withy Grove
  • High Street

Access to the Shudehill bus interchange will not be affected, with just a single bus stop closure on Corporation Street (alternate stops will be signposted), and tram services through the area will remain unaffected.

Manchester City Council says it will be working with Electricity North West and its partners to minimise disruption to businesses, residents and commuters.

Dates are flexible and could be subject to change.
