Drivers are encouraged to allow extra time when travelling this morning: a Met Office Yellow warning for fog covers Southport and the rest of Merseyside until 11am, with visibility down to around 50 metres in places.
Liverpool trains:
Merseyrail’s Northern Line tunnel works have finished, so Southport trains run through to Liverpool Central and Moorfields again. A leaf-fall timetable is in place on the Southport line.
Wigan, Manchester and London:
Northern trains through Wigan Wallgate are running close to time, and trains to Manchester are on time. Heading to London? A signalling fault between Preston and Wigan North Western could delay Avanti trains by up to 15 minutes until about 12.15pm.
Buses:
The Remembrance Sunday diversions have ended, so the X2 and 2 to Preston and the 47 and 300 to Liverpool are back on their usual routes. Tracked buses were on time first thing.
Roads:
Kew roundabout works continue, with lane narrowing and delays likely at peak times. Going via Ormskirk tonight? The A570 through the town centre is being resurfaced overnight (6pm–6am) all week.
