Pothole causes chaos in Radcliffe

Road closure and diversions in place

Published 13th Sep 2016

A large hole has appeared in the middle of a busy main road in Whitefield.

Part of Radcliffe New Road collapsed yesterday afternoon, close to the junction with Leicester Road.

Bury Council's closed the road between Dales Lane and Stand Lane whilst they investigate alongside United Utilities.

It's thought a collapsed sewer may've been to blame.

Diversions are in place.
