The roads are: A57 Snake Pass, A537 Cat and Fiddle, A53 Axe Edge, A6024 Holme Moss and Goyts Lane, off the A5004 near Buxton.

Meanwhile, National Highways is due to make a decision about the A628 Woodhead Pass at tea time on Monday.

On Monday, the route between Sheffield and Manchester was closed in both directions between the A616 (Flouch) and A57 (Hollingworth) due to flooding on Salter's Brook Bridge.

National Highways advised motorists to use the M60, M62 and M1 as an alternative route.
