Six weeks of work will start next week on a road resurfacing programme which will improve sections of Albion Square, Hanley.

The work, which will start on Monday (13 March), is part of efforts to improve the key transport route for shoppers and businesses.

The pedestrian access will not be affected but a number of diversions for vehicles will be in place while resurfacing work is ongoing:

  • Buses will be diverted along Potteries Way to access the bus station.
  • Access to Stafford Street will be limited to taxis and deliveries.
  • Access into Percy Street, Tontine Street and Parliament Row will remain via Old Hall Street but exit will be by turning right into Stafford Street.
  • Changes and access and egress to Cheapside will be put in place at a later date during the works, but will be maintained until then.

Access to Stafford Street will be limited to taxis and deliveries until work is complete (Google).

Councillor James Smith, cabinet member for infrastructure, heritage and development management, said: "We have, and are continuing, to work hard to upgrade the city's road network to make it easier for drivers and pedestrians to travel around Stoke-on-Trent and this latest work is a testament to our commitment to doing just that.

"We apologise for any inconvenience caused. Every effort will be made to minimise disruption while this important work is carried out."
