The motorway plan that could end decades of misery Choked up roads have been an issue since the Second World War

Reckon it's about time this was sorted out. Anyone who travels between Wigan and Bolton - like I do - will know how bad this issue is

It was the worst night out in the UK - now this suburb is the top party town It's become the 'go to' destination for people from all over the region and beyond

I'll definitely be heading back here again, although I might ditch the car. The A56 through Sale was a pain.

Fears over plan to build 2,000 new homes in Greater Manchester town Residents say there should be no new homes until road is built

If you travel between Wigan and Bolton by road, you might have some sympathy with these residents, perhaps

Allotment holders to be hit with 'one hell of a rent increase' 'When you're a pensioner on a fixed income that kind of increase is a lot'

Do you think this is harsh or justified?
