A NUMBER of roads will be closed during the demolition of Fiddler’s Ferry power station. In just a few weeks, the iconic cooling towers will be gone for good with the demolition set for December 3. The Cuerdley site has been earmarked for housing and industrial use following the cessation of operations when the power station closed in March 2020 after nearly 50 years. Now, Warrington Borough Council has published a Road Traffic Regulation Act notice detailing road closures to allow for the site to be demolished safely. Driving will be prohibited on the following roads: Widnes Road, from its junction with Farnworth Road roundabout to its junction with Dans Road Dans Road, from its junction with Widnes Road to its junction with Dans Road roundabout Farnworth Road, from its junction with Farnworth Road roundabout to its junction with South Lane South Lane, from its junction with Farnworth Road to its junction with Derby Road Derby Road, from its junction with South Lane to its junction with Watkinson Way. The prohibition of driving order will be effective from December 3 for one day. However, it is anticipated that the closures will only be in place between 7am and 4pm that day while the bulk of the demolition takes place. The alternative route will be via Widnes Road, Warrington Road, Penketh Road, Sankey Way, Liverpool Road, Warrington Road, Watkinson Way, Fiddlers Ferry Road and vice versa.
