Fylde and Wyre roadworks this week, how long they are scheduled to last and why they are in place
Lasting between one day and two weeks, motorists are advised to avoid these areas if they can or plan their journey to give themselves more time.
As there are 36 roadworks beginning between Monday, December 11 and Sunday, December 17 we have only listed those involving closures, stop/go boards and temporary traffic lights but this week there are thankfully very few.
So take a look at the roadworks you will most want to be aware of this week, including how long the work is scheduled to last and why:
