It might look at first glance that the driver in this photo has got lost and ended up in a pedestrian zone in Bolton town centre.

Having said that it does appear as though the car is heading the wrong way along the street as it turns into Mawdsley Street.
On the left you can see the side entrance to the recently-built Arndale Centre.
