M6, M53, M56, M57 and M62 told of 'delays' as motorways close

Five motorways in Merseyside will be closed this week with delays expected for motorists on the M6, M53, M56, M57 and M62

The motorways will be closed for essential roadworks and National Highways has told drivers to expect delays. The road closures will be overnight between Monday, June 6 and Sunday, June 12.

It comes after the region saw no motorway closures last week due to the special and extended bank holiday weekend. However, this week sees the start of a five-month-long set of roadworks for the M57 between junctions one and two.
