Friday travel and movement update

This week, some work going on at Mount Pleasant, notification of tunnel closures, and commercial district works are altered - it's Mathew Street Festival weekend!

City Centre Events

Mathew Street Festival: There will be road closures around the city centre for the Mathew Street Festival which takes place over the August Bank Holiday weekend. For more details, please visit: http://www.mathewstreetfestival.org/getting-here/road-closures/

Commercial District

On Dale Street work is complete between Vernon Street and Churchill Way Flyover. Work has now started outside Municipal Buildings between Crosshall St and Sir Thomas Street but will conclude for the Bank Holiday weekend and the Traffic Management facilities will be temporarily removed to an alternative location for the Mathew Street Festival.

The Disabled Car parking facilities outside the Municipal Buildings will be temporarily suspended for a short period to allow works to be undertaken in this area. The bus stop will also be closed for a short time.

The slip road from Hatton Garden onto Dale Street is temporarily closed to allow the safe construction of the kerbs and footpaths. This closure will be carefully monitored and consultation will begin to possibly make it permanent. Crosshall Street will be reduced to one lane at its junction with Dale Street to facilitate regulatory Traffic Management in this location for a limited time.

Knowledge Quarter/Mount Pleasant

The upper part of Mount Pleasant from the junction with Oxford Street to Brownlow Hill is closed to traffic to allow the works to be completed safely. Safe and accessible pedestrian facilities will be maintained throughout the extent of the works. The footpath around the perimeter of the Metropolitan Cathedral is now being paved to enable pedestrians to move around the works. This enlarged section of footpath should be open to pedestrian traffic permanently by the end of the week, weather permitting.

Access to the University car parks, Metropolitan Cathedral of Christ the King, Cathedral House and the Catholic Chaplaincy to the University is being maintained at all times from the Brownlow Hill junction while Upper Mount Pleasant is closed.

Queensway Tunnel

Queensway Tunnel will also be closed in both directions from 10pm on Saturday, 28th August to 6.30am on Tuesday, 31st August for the Mathew Street Festival. It will also be closed from 10pm to 6.30am from Monday, 13th September to Thursday, 16th September for essential maintenance works. All traffic should use the Kingsway Tunnel.

Merseyrail Northern Line (Southern branch)

At this time, there is no indication that the southern branch of the Northern Line will not be open tomorrow morning.
