M65 junction warning as slip roads set for a share of £30m East Lancs road overhaul
The warning was given to Blackburn with Darwen Council’s executive board as it signed off the appointment of Balfour Beatty as the borough’s partner for the M65 junction five overhaul bid as part of the £30million Blackburn Growth Axis Transport scheme.
The southbound exit slip will be widened from two lanes to three and the entry slips in each direction would also be widened to allow for segregated left turn lanes for traffic entering the motorway. The Grane Road and A6077 Haslingden Road, either side of the junction, will be widened to allow for similar left turn lanes for northbound and southbound M65 traffic.The roundabout would be expanded from two lanes to three with ‘intelligent’ traffic signals.
The council secured £20m from the government’s Levelling Up Fund in January to address transport issues in an area serving the Royal Blackburn Hospital, the EG Group’s headquarters, Evolution Park and Shadsworth Industrial Estate, and new housing.
