Road closed as strong winds bring down large tree at Lymm

By Gary Skentelbery on 21st January 2024 7:25 pm Lymm Life, News

A main road was closed after a large tree fell during strong winds caused by Storm Isha at Lymm on Sunday afternoon.

The tree fell near the Jolly Thresher Pub on the A56 Higher Lane.

As a result, local bus services were delayed and cancelled.

Contractors were brought in to clear the road.

There is no service on the 3 @ 16:20 due to a bus getting stuck due to fallen trees. We apologise for any inconvenience

The weather warning for #StormIsha has been been upgraded to Amber by the @metoffice with very strong winds forecast, potentially resulting in disruption to power, roads and damage to buildings.

If you absolutely have to be out, take care, particular on exposed routes. (1/4) pic.twitter.com/Do1NwbmuYI
