A section of Waterside in Hadfield will be under traffic management, to assist in a gas supply upgrade.

Trains - 18-21 April & 2-23 August. >>Local roads permanently closed during the works (12 months / April 2026)<<.

Stockport Railway station and the roads directly south will be closed. This is to facilitate the removal and rebuild of the Greek Str/Mercian Way roundabout, whose bridge supports are now failing and causing danger to the railway.

Through services will mainly be diverted, with trains south operating via Heald Green & Wilmslow, and trains east operating via Romiley. Buxton trains will run to/from Hazel Grove and Chester trains will run to/from Altrincham. All remaining services from Piccadilly will be on a slightly different schedule to accommodate the diverted trains.

Local buses are diverted. Visit Stockport Interchange for leaflets, or information is available online via the TfGM website.
