I WOULDN’T normally respond to anything that I don’t agree with in the papers.

But I think someone should point out to the planners of such a grand scheme as the Loco Works that the obvious increase in traffic on the M61 would probably lead to an increase in manic depression for all drivers.

We already have to queue at 6.45am on weekdays from Farnworth back to Westhoughton. God forbid this goes ahead. Let’s get the road infrastructure sorted before any planning is agreed.
