DRIVERS in Northwich are being warned the town's bridges are set to swing this week.

Two bridges in the town will be swung on Thursday (August 29) morning.

The Canal and River Trust has also warned this may take longer than usual, and could result in some traffic delays.

Hayhurst Swing Bridge is due to swing first, at 9.30am.

This will be followed by Northwich Town Swing Bridge at 10am.

The trust says these swings usually take five minutes each.

However, on this occasion each swing could take 20 to 30 minutes.
