Please see this important update from our colleagues Redcar & Cleveland Borough Council !
A1085 MARSKE LANE, MARSKE EMERGENCY ROAD CLOSURE
As of 17:00 today 23rd June 2026, United Infrastructure, acting on behalf of Northumbrian Water, will be implementing a full closure of A1085 Marske Lane in both directions.
This decision has been made to ensure that the necessary works can be carried out in a safe and controlled environment for both the workforce and members of the public.
This measure follows ongoing and repeated breaches of the existing southbound closure, which has been disregarded by motorists on a significant number of occasions.
Vehicles have been observed travelling on the incorrect side of the carriageway, creating hazardous conditions, and presenting a serious and unacceptable risk to public safety.
Every effort was made to maintain partial access, with the northern side of the carriageway remaining open to allow residents to enter Marske. However, due to the persistent non-compliance and the increasing risk associated with these actions, it has become clear that a full road closure is the only effective way to manage the situation safely.
The closure is expected to remain in place for approximately two weeks, or until the works are completed. Clearly signed diversion routes will be in place to assist motorists during this period.
We appreciate that this may cause inconvenience and thank residents and road users for their understanding and cooperation during these essential works.
