## Resource

Roads across Greater Manchester are in chaos as major A and B roads face extensive, long-term roadworks—some stretching until January 2027. From gas mains in Radcliffe Moor to electricity upgrades on Agecroft Road and Mottram Moor closures lasting till 2027, disruptions are widespread, impacting everything from commute times to local businesses. Projects like the Alan Turing Way electricity work (done by Sept) and New Bailey Street contraflow (May 2027) are just part of a complex, multi-year overhaul. Expect delays, detours, and frustration as essential repairs and upgrades slowly reshape the region’s infrastructure.
