There is litter and abandoned signs etc from previous roadworks all over the m58 m6 interchange and has not been cleaned for over 18 months. It is that bad it is encouraging more littering. You appear to have no schedule for this. You have a perfect opportunity with roadworks to sort this so please confirmn when this will be cleaned and further schedules for regular review and cleaning - I am trying to avoid also doing an FOIA so please send a full response

Dead saplings, 20th February

Tue, 20 Feb 2024 15:39:41 +0000
53.536547 -2.697236

The saplings planted to replace the mature trees knocked down for the new bridge at Orrell interchange have failed. This is having a direct impact on the houses near the junction as the tree provided protection from noise and light pollution. Since the trees have been removed this issue has been ongoing. To address this issue new trees were planted but you haven’t continued to care for these saplings and they have all died. Please could these be replaced and the replacements be taken care of so that they have a chance at succeeding. You could plant gather ferns or conifer trees which stand a better chance of surviving with little interference.

Traffic light has been knocked down, 20th February

Tue, 20 Feb 2024 15:34:25 +0000
53.535374 -2.699682

I don’t know if these traffic lights come under your jurisdiction or the councils but the traffic lights at the top of Orrell interchange junction have been knocked over. They have been coned off but they’ve been like that for two weeks now. It makes it difficult for pedestrians to judge when to cross.

Litter around this junction, 20th February

Tue, 20 Feb 2024 15:32:05 +0000
53.535374 -2.699682

There is a large amount of little around both roundabouts and up to the traffic lights in Orrell. In addition to the litter issues the trees that were planted to replace the ones you chopped down to put up the new bridge have all failed leading to increase noise pollution. Could both of these issues be addressed please.

Considerable amount of litter, bottles etc on all tje slip roads leading up from m6 on the roundabout and road up to jct at Orrell Road, 9th February

Fri, 09 Feb 2024 12:22:25 +0000
53.534777 -2.698068

As above, looks absolutely disgraceful and does nit look welcoming to anyone leaving at the jct. Grass is only ever cut once in summer amd then only the edges rather than the whole area so it's difficult to see traffic on the roundabout. Surely a local business could sponsor and maintain tje area ?

Along the M6 at the end of Latimer Close that seperates the walkway alongside the motorway, 21st January

53.544123 -2.698426

Good morning, Recently you had a team putting up the new fence that separates the m6 walkway and the houses, unfortunately it seems the fence has come apart and is now leaning into the walkway, i feel it may completely collapse shortly ! Also could you please inform the team that comes to trim all the trees back if they could also trim the ones that are now growing over my garage and garden, they did it a few years ago but they are all growing over again. Many thanks,
