Reeds Bridge, B5470 Macclesfield Road

Following a road traffic collision, the north parapet of Reeds Bridge has suffered extensive damage.

What is happening

We have installed temporary concrete barriers on the bridge, which have reduced the width of the carriageway to a single lane. To manage traffic safely, temporary traffic signals have been installed and will remain in place until repairs can be carried out.

Works to repair the bridge will start on Monday 2 November 2026 and will take approximately 21 days to complete.  Due to the nature of the works a full road closure will be in place, with a fully signed diversion route in operation.

We appreciate any closure of this route may cause disruption, but works have been planned to minimise this for local road users.

Our Ramblers Wellbeing Walks are weekly, social, short walks for beginners, available in Crewe and Macclesfield for residents. Our walks are the perfect opportunity to get out, increase your activity levels and socialise in a safe environment. 

The Ramblers (or affiliated members) generate funds from Ramble Worldwide (formerly Ramblers Walking Holidays) bookings through partnership agreements, specifically receiving donations of £10 per passenger or up to £500 per group booking when users quote a specific code (e.g., RW24). This is in addition to direct discounts for the traveller, effectively acting as a charitable donation mechanism from the travel partner to the Ramblers.
