Spring Thyme Fold is a key route connecting Littleborough to the surrounding areas, and the closure is likely to impact traffic flow.

The reason for the closure is classified as minor by the highway authority, with no further details available on the nature of the work being carried out. However, it is expected that the disruption will cause some inconvenience to local residents and commuters. Drivers are advised to allow extra time for their journeys and to consider using public transport or alternative modes of transport where possible.

Rochdale Borough Council has scheduled the roadworks to take place during the night, with the closure expected to be in place from 12am to 12am each day. However, drivers are advised to check for updates on the council's website or social media channels for any changes to the scheduled dates or times.

For those who rely on Spring Thyme Fold for their daily commute, it may be worth considering alternative routes or modes of transport in advance of the closure. Local bus services may be affected by the disruption, and drivers are advised to check with the bus operator for any updates on service disruptions or alternative routes.

While the road closure is expected to cause some inconvenience, it is hoped that the work will ultimately improve the road network in the area. Motorists are advised to exercise patience and to follow the recommended alternative routes to avoid delays.
