Road closures and Metrolink works to cause traffic chaos in Manchester this weekend
Transport bosses have issued an urgent weekend warning as congestion in the centre of Manchester is 'expected on the roads at all times' on Saturday and Sunday.
Roadworks will see the closure of Shudehill northbound between High Street and Thomas Street from 1am on Saturday through to 5am on Monday. There will be no access to Mosley Street between Charlotte Street and Parker Street, and no access to New York Street from York Street over the same period. TfGm said: "People travelling into Manchester city centre this weekend are being urged to plan ahead with major roadworks and Metrolink engineering works, as well as major music and sport events, expected to impact journeys.
The annual St Patrick's Day parade will be held on Sunday, between noon and 2pm, with 1,000 people expected to line the route. TfGM said there would be rolling road closures from Queens Road, through to Cheetham Hill Road before the parade circles back from Great Ducie Street. "Congestion is expected around Corporation Street, the Inner Ring Road and Hunts Bank, along with increased footfall on Corporation Street," said TfGM.
