Parts of the M60 will be closed for six nights in April due to a motorway project being carried out by Highways England.

16 overhead gantries are to be demolished due to their unsuitability and new electronic signs are to be installed as part of the scheme. Closures will take places between 10pm and 6am each night.

The anticlockwise side of the M60 will be closed overnight on Saturday 18th April between junction 12 at the M62/M602 interchange and junction 11 at Eccles. The eastbound link road from the M62 onto both sides of the M60 will also be closed, along with the westbound link road from the M602 onto the anticlockwise side of the M60.
