I hear time and time again how congested our roads are, none more so than Leigh Road in Daisy Hill.
I’ve been working with local residents, including Derek, to revive the plans for a bypass that would follow the old A5225 proposals that should have been built decades ago, but were shelved in the 1990s.
Wigan Council have already built their section and I am urging Bolton Council to finish their bit and block the plans to build thousands of houses at Chequerbent which would make this link road impossible. A link-road would have a huge impact in alleviating the congestion in Daisy Hill and beyond, giving a more appropriate route for HGVs to get from the Atherleigh Way to the M61.
