Some drivers were being diverted
A major road between Manchester and Sheffield has been closed to certain vehicles due to strong winds today. National Highways said the A628 Woodhead Pass was closed in both directions to 'high sided and vulnerable vehicles' earlier this afternoon .
The closure ran between the A57 at Hollingworth, in Tameside, and the A616 at Flouch, near Stocksbridge. Drivers of all vehicles were warned to expect delays as a result of the closure. In an update at around 1.10pm, National Highways said wind speeds had dropped to a safe level, and fully reopened the road.
National Highways says vehicles that are considered vulnerable during strong winds include motorhomes, vans, vehicles towing caravans and motorbikes - as well as buses, HGVs, tippers and transporters. Drivers of these vehicles are being urged to use the M60, M62 and M1 instead to cross the Pennines from Manchester to South Yorkshire.A post on the National Highways website added: "Road users are also advised to allow extra time for their journey.
The Met Office is forecasting strong winds with gusts of up to 38mph this afternoon in Crowden, near to Woodhead Reservoir. Speeds are expected to drop to around 30mph by 9pm and down to 26mph by 8am tomorrow morning, before picking up again on Thursday afternoon.
