This morning, myself and my ward colleagues Les and Nicky Turner accompanied representatives from City West Housing and the Council on a walkabout around the western half of the Birch Road estate.
We spoke to a number of local residents about their concerns, with traffic again a major concern. I will be studying the Walkden High School planning application very closely to see what the travel plan says about traffic flow throughout the estate. Personally I see a lot of merit in a 20mph zone across the Birch Road area but we have been told this cannot be implemented without additional traffic-calming.
