MOTORISTS are being reminded that Royal Cheshire County Show traffic is likely to impact the area tomorrow, Tuesday, and on Wednesday.
The popular event returns to the Clayhouse Farm showground at Tabley on June 20 and 21, with the M6, M56 and A556 all set to feel the effects of big crowds.
Doors are open between 8am and 6pm each day, with traffic also set to continue either side of these times are visitors come and go.
Highways England events planning manager Chris Chadwick said: “We will be working to get visitors into and away from the Cheshire Show as quickly as possible and to minimise inconvenience to other road users.
“Motorway users can help themselves by planning their journeys and checking traffic conditions before they set out. Show visitors should heed official directions to the show and any hard signs or electronic signs we use to give them advice on the day.”
Highways England and Cheshire East Council will work together to manage traffic, and the council has put on free shuttle buses between the showground and Hartford and Knutsford railway stations.
All routes off the motorway network will have signs diverting traffic to the showground.
