As a result of a Labour Party survey and campaign regarding the ongoing problems with traffic problems on Bolton Road I can report the following progress:
1. With regard to the zebra crossing on Bolton Road, Ashton a site investigation is to be carried out to determine whether there are any issues with visibility at this crossing. If any visibility issues are identified then remedial measures will be considered. I will be informed of the results of the survey.
2.The fault on the zebra crossing beacons has been reported to Wigan Council's Street Lighting section who will arrange for this to be repaired.
3. The guardrail outside Tesco is to be extended by four metres. The two panels that are currently obstructing access to the bus stop are to be removed and re-erected at the end of the section of guardrail.
4.With regard to vehicles overrunning the footway and damaging the footway at the junction of Bolton Road and Bryn Road South, the Highways Maintenance section inform me that they are currently undertaking works in this area to try and prevent damage to the footway. The tarmac on the footway is to be replaced with concrete which will strengthen the footway and make it more resilient to vehicle damage.
