Prepare for the road ahead with Cheshire East

 

Planning your journey has just become a little easier thanks to Cheshire East Council.

Residents can now view live map data showing traffic and travel information as part of a revamped transport and travel website.

Before drivers head out on the road, they can now visit the site and find details on roadworks, disruptions, events, car park location and capacities and CCTV cameras on the roads and motorways.

There is also an option to work out what the carbon impact is of any journey by entering details into the ‘carbon calculator’ option.

Councillor Rod Menlove, Cabinet member with responsibility for environmental services, said: “This will further enhance the information provided to residents and those travelling through the Borough to help make informed decisions when planning journeys. It should also prove useful for councillors themselves.

“The site contains information about how we maintain the Cheshire East road network and how people can report problems, such as a pothole, missing sign or defective street light.

“This is a further example of our attempts to enhance the Cheshire East environment.”

Digital warning signs found on Cheshire East motorways can also be viewed online. The aim is now to introduce further information on bus stops, gritting routes, road closures and diversions.
