A sinkhole on a Dukinfield road is causing traffic to build and diversions on Wednesday (3 March).
Part of Lodge Lane at the junction of Cheetham Hill Road is closed while the hole is dealt with.
It’s not yet known what caused the collapse, or how long repairs will take.
Images taken by our photographer Nigel Wood show cones and fencing surrounding the small sinkhole.
The 346 Stagecoach bus service is currently being diverted via Cheetham Hill Road and Oxford Road in both directions while repairs take place.
Route 346. Diversion for the closure of Lodge Lane from 2 March until further notice. Please see link. https://t.co/5qTp50svN6 pic.twitter.com/HcIuVdC2GF
