A 57 Snake Pass Closure: 15th June – 3rd July 

Please be aware that the A57 Snake Pass will be fully closed 24 hours a day from Monday 15 June until Friday 3 July while major investigation and repair works take place at the Doctor’s Gate landslip site. The closure will affect the route between Glossop and Ladybower Reservoir.

A signed diversion route will be in place, and access for residents, businesses, farmers and organisations along the route will be maintained. These works are essential to help find a long-term solution after ongoing ground movement and cracking along the road and will involve heavy machinery and drilling equipment operating across the carriageway.

Don’t be Scammed in 2026: Call 159
If you are concerned about a phone call from your bank and think you are being contacted by a fraudster or scammer, call 159. 159 is a safe way to contact your bank and most banks have signed up to this scheme. When calling 159, you will be taken through a menu in which each bank taking part in the scheme is read aloud for you to select. But be aware that scammers sometimes keep the line open, play a ringtone and then answer as your bank. To be sure, it’s best to use another phone or ring a different number first.
