I write in response to the letter from Maureen Smith of September 30, regarding the footpath between Leigh Street and Collingwood Way Westhoughton.
I can confirm that this footpath is just one scheme under Bolton Council’s Capital Programme, associated with the Public Rights of Way Improvement Plan with funding allocated to resurface footpaths in need of urgent repairs.
It is excellent news that Mrs Smith is very happy with the outcome and her complimentary remarks are nice regarding the workmanship of the Council’s contractor Bethell.
