ROAD CLOSURE:The
A5004 Long Hill Road will be closed completely from Buxton to Whaley Bridge from
28th September 2020 to 9th October 2020 to allow work to take place in the area
where the temporary traffic lights have been - where the road has subsided.
ROAD CLOSURE:
From Monday 28 September,
Highways England will carry out four nights of overnight closures to complete
resurfacing work on the A628 Woodhead Pass. The overnight surfacing closures
will be Monday to Thursday, between 8pm and 6am. (Thank you Eric Hilton for the
update)
ROAD CLOSURE: The A54 Congleton Road is closed due to a land slip - Below is the sign on
the south end where the lane from Sutton meets the A54. THANK YOU to Ivor Kelly
for the photo and the information - and for taking the time to help other
travellers - he says "It is confusing to say the least. The section closed
(working from the Buxton end) is from just after the turn down to Wildboarclough
to a point north of Blaze Farm. The similar sign on the north end of the closure
where the A54 meets to Cat & Fiddle road is similar, saying Blaze Farm etc are
open. However it fails to point out that you can’t reach these from the Buxton
end without either dodging down the very narrow and long lanes around
Wildboarclough (not recommended) or going through Macclesfield. An
alternative route for cars from Buxton would be to take the Leek road, go
through Flash and come out at the Rose and Crown. This only adds around 5
minutes to the journey."

-----UK,
Met Office - Longer Range Forecast, for the entire UK ©Met Office.:
---------
Tuesday 29 Sep - Thursday 8 Oct
Initially dry for many places on Tuesday before cloud and rain arrive later.
Into the middle of next week, it is set to return to unsettled conditions with
generally windy weather coupled with showers and occasional longer spells of
rain at times. The heaviest rain is most likely in the west and northwest, which
may also see gales, with a low likelihood of them turning severe, at times. In
the east and southeast, there may still be brief interludes of drier and sunnier
weather. Temperatures will generally be rather cool, potentially cooler in more
persistent rainfall, and overnight frost may be seen in prone parts of the north
during any brief interludes of calmer weather.
Friday 9 Oct - Friday 23 Oct
Further into October, conditions are likely to remain unsettled for most. The
most unsettled conditions being in southern areas. Generally windy with a chance
of gales, however the risk of gales reduces later in the period. Feeling cool
throughout with a risk of overnight frost. Lighter winds means that morning fog
patches may also become more prevalent towards mid-month.---------
