Marple

Footpath 62

We've made an order under section 14 (1) of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 as amended by the Road Traffic (Temporary Restrictions) Act 1991.

We'll temporarily close footpath 62 Marple for 600 metres between the entrance to Dale Farm and Connect 2 Bridge at Chadkirk. Traffic signs to that effect are in place on or near the public footpath.

This order is necessary as the footpath is a danger to the public due to a riverbank collapse.

It's anticipated that the maximum duration of the works will be 6 months.

Alternative routes will provided via:

  • public footpath 62 Marple southwards, until it meets public footpath 64 Marple generally eastwards, until it meets Marple Hall Drive and continuing south eastwards to Mandalay Gardens continuing to Flagg Wood Avenue, then north eastwards to Walton Drive continuing south eastwards to Marsland Road, and then north before turning eastwards to meet Kingsbridge Close continuing to Dale Lane

This Order is to come into operation on 1 December 2024 and will have effect for 6 months. If all necessary works are completed within a shorter period, this order shall cease to have effect at the end of that shorter period.

The reference number for this order is ZA/5560087.
