The first 112 houses for the Horwich Loco Works site were given the go ahead by Bolton Council yesterday.
I have absolutely clear, we need a Masterplan that sets out a clear vision for the whole site. This has to start by setting out comprehensive transport upgrades and how contaminated land is going to be remediated. I have seen no evidence so far that gives any confidence that these concerns will be dealt with in a way that Horwich residents deserve.
