Diversion on Morecambe roads for planned gas works next month

Gas maintenance work is to be carried out on a section of road in Morecambe’s West End next month.

Lancashire County Council is requesting permission to temporarily prohibit traffic on parts of Back Regent Road, Claremont Road and Clarendon Road East in Morecambe for up to three days at the beginning of November.

The temporary prohibition is necessary to allow gas connection works to be carried out.

It means no vehicles can use the length of Back Regent Road, Claremont Road and Clarendon Road East from the rear of property no.32 Regent Road to the rear of property no.36 Regent Road.

Access for emergency services will be maintained whenever and wherever possible, and pedestrian access to properties will always be maintained.
