A CHESHIRE town centre bus lane is to be suspended temporarily due to major roadworks.
Warrington Borough Council says it will suspend the current bus lane on Academy Street.
Motorists are being made aware through the publication of a temporary Road Traffic Regulation Act order.
This will cover the bus lane on Academy Street, from its junctions with the eastern boundary of Academy Way and southern boundary with Buttermarket Street.
The order will be effective from October 27 for four weeks, as and when signed on site.
Access will be under the control of the relevant contractor for the duration of the works.
A diversion has been drawn up that will see motorists avoid the closure by using an alternative route via Mersey Street, Dial Street and Buttermarket Street.
A council spokesman said: “The restrictions are required to allow Cadent Gas to carry out mains replacement work.”
