Some roads still closed, others getting back to normal

Traffic  at Blackbrook Road and West End Road, in St. Helens, is now running smoothly and water levels are contained.


College Street remains shut and water levels are still rising.  Islands Brow and Merton Bank Road are also still closed as water levels are rising here.


Peasley Cross Lane was  opened up after the peak rush hour this morning but is being monitored throughout the day.


Burrows Lane is still closed and the water level is still high though cars can use an adjacent service road.

Watery Lane is now passable but there is still a lot of water coming off adjacent land and this is also being kept under review. Smock Lane re-opened yesterday.
