Don’t forget to vote or better still start your own revolution using non violent civil disobedience tactics, that might get their attention because to be honest chief non of them are interested, especially that facile smug self serving berk Timpson ( Google origin of berk for my full opinion)
“Pothole ridden”?! Try driving down many on the rural roads in the area! Hollins Green Rd in particular! It’s disgusting the state of the rural roads, and a kick in the teeth when this – not too bad (in comparison) – road gets resurfaced AGAIN just because it’s in town! The urban/rural divide widens again by the width of some tarmac…
Already spoken to Cheshire east and Nantwich councils, regarding vehicles speeding through Brine Baths estate , using Brine road , Newbold way, and Stonebridge road to get round roadworks .
This is already a regular rat run for traffic to miss the A530 junction on Wellington road, but this will now involve heavy goods vehicles, which will use this route rather than drive 10 miles out of there way.
