MOTORISTS using the East Lancs Road and Rainford bypass are warned to expect delays from Monday as advanced drainage repair works begin at Windle Island.
The work, part of the approved Windle Island Junction Improvements Scheme, will begin on Monday (August 14) and is expected to last up to eight weeks.
St Helens Council says work are to take place during off-peak hours from 9.30am to 3.30pm on Mondays to Fridays and all day on weekends.
To ensure the works are completed safely, a series of traffic management measures will be installed on the A580 and A570 on a daily basis during off-peak traffic running hours.
All routes will remain open and accessible throughout the duration of these works.
The Windle Island Junction Improvement Scheme, which recently won formal approval, aims to see improved safety, smoother traffic flow, and better access in and out of St Helens.
The scheme is expected to be completed by early 2019.
