I wish someone would sort out those lights at the Saddle, 8 cars through from Robin Park Rd as opposed to 20 + from Southgate, Ormskirk Road and Warrington Road...traffic was backed up to the Red Robin again......

Soon be over, Vixen, soon be over.

M6 northbound is stopped at Haydock !

tbh mac not bothered how long it takes, just sort out the traffic management.....

Nah, it carries on well beyond that, I've been up it many a time.

In such circumstances, some folk take a different route wom and some can't be bothered and they then get stuck in the traffic

Or they could use a ....Bicycle?

1. I can't be bothered getting lost around your route and b. I can't ride a bike.....

This week, there will be no temporary traffic lights on Saddle junction or Wallgate. However, two inbound lanes will be closed off peak on Warrington Rd. We thank motorists for their cooperation and we will continue to keep the public informed as the work progresses.

Plenty going on in Pemberton in September
