AFTER reading that £1million is being spent on Oxford Street/Knowsley Street— some of this money could have been spent on Bradshawgate which is the main road into the town centre.
It looks awful when most of the shops are boarded up and does not give a very good impression when approaching the town centre.
Why do they need to spend this amount of money after spending millions on the new bus station and railway station.
This money could have been better spent on a new health centre in Little Lever which was promised and so far nothing has happened on this.
Money has also been promised to Farnworth when the market was demolished, so far this does not seem to be forthcoming. Farnworth has now become a ghost town when in the past it was thriving with plenty of shops and a very good market.
