Anyone planning on using the M62 between 18 and 20 this weekend?

Well… you’re not.

Train line closed as well (obviously). Was supposed to be getting ready for a birthday feed and drink at Bundobust brewery right now… ho hum. Looks like it’s necessary and valuable work… let them crack on.

Blimey! That’s going to be carnage on the local roads – towed our caravan home mid-day on a Monday along the M62 to Simster Island then north to Rawtenstall a few weeks ago and the motorway was absolutely rammed. I know this is overnight but will still be a lot of traffic.
