Hyde Street Closure

Hyde Street, from Wigan Street to SH1, will be closed on Monday 6 March, for three weeks.

This area is part of the heavy traffic bypass. The following detours will be in place:

• Northbound heavy traffic will be diverting along SH1/Main Street to Medway Street
• Southbound heavy traffic will be diverted at Mersey Street, then SH1/Main Street

It's planned to reopen one lane of Hyde Street to northbound traffic after three weeks. The work on Hyde Street is expected to take seven weeks.

The closure is to allow for the replacement of a major wastewater pipeline, which runs from the Hyde/Wigan streets intersection to the Ardwick/Eccles streets intersection.

The entire project is expected to take five months - further info regarding impacts on traffic for SH1 and Eccles and Ardwick streets will be provided as the work progresses.

Recommended access points for businesses in the area:

👉 The carwash and ITM - via Bury/Wigan Street

👉 Hirepool, Rockgas and McKeown’s - via the eastern end of Hyde Street

👉 Advance Quip and Bridgestone - via the western end of Hyde Street
