Surface dressing: A537

A letter has been issued by Cheshire East Council advising that, “in the coming weeks, A537 Chelford Road between Pepper Street and Congleton Road, will be surface dressed with a preventative surface treatment to help keep your road in good condition. We cannot give you an exact date as these works are weather dependent. Road closures will be staggered over several days due to the surface dressing process.”

Signs are expected to be put on the road to give notice of the dates and times that the work will be undertaken.

We will make every effort to maintain vehicle access to your property or business. However, due to the nature of the works some inconvenience may still occur and there will be times when point of entry will vary. There may also be delays in access due to ongoing plant and machinery movements.

Please note, this letter does not grant you access through the road closure. If you have any specific access requirements, please raise these with our site supervisor as soon as possible.

Your safety and the safety of our workforce is our main concern. Our Traffic Management Officers will be supplied with CCTV cameras and they will assist you as the work progresses.
