Overhanging Branches, 19th February

Wed, 19 Feb 2020 10:19:33 +0000
53.475455 -2.595543

In the direction towards A573 as you pass under the bridge there is some quite significant overhang of branches. On first glimpse the branches appear insignificant, but when you get close up and inspect them they are quite thick and have been damaged by passing vehicles already. Some of our buses have had the wing mirror knocked off from these overhangs. The branches are hanging over the carriageway. The bend in the road is a hazard in any case, but with these overhangs it worsens the hazard.

Flooding near were there used to be a problem years ago. From platt bridge just before the junction of riding lane and Bolton road. Has been at least 2 days and there has been no rainfall. Why has nothing been done about this as it is dangerous. Also as we came through tonight some young clowns thought it would be a laugh to drive through it at high speed and completely cover other cars from top to bottom. Yours Ms. Veronica Farrell

This is an extremely dangerous junction, there have been numerous collisions and near misses. Traffic on the main road from both directions have a tendency to ignore the fact that this is an island and not slow down, something has to be done about it before someone is seriously injured or even worse killed.
