If we could please make everyone aware of the road closures this Sunday, although there is no training this Sunday due to the Greater Manchester competition, we have many swimmers in both the morning and afternoon sessions.

Those that are attending the Greater Manchester meet please take not of the road closure times, as they will affect to use the majority of the car parks around the pool.

I have attached the course maps and road closures maps.
