Traffic in town

To all those driving in tonight traffic is already horrendous. Brunshaw road and ormerod road being closed wont help. Will take best part of an hour even from Nelson at minute.

Anything in particular causing it? Can't imagine it's football traffic yet.

Burst water main has closed Brunshaw Rd at the bottom of the hill. Not great that with Ormerod Rd already closed for surfacing works. Chaos I'm told by my folks.

are those temporary traffic lights at the junction of Manchester Road and Finsley Gate still in operation? They've been causing traffic delays for three weeks now.

That route was also bad (down towards the fire station from eastern avenue. Thats the way i left town. So came back the other way and equally bad)

Yep still there. The whole town is gridlocked. Taken my brother 90 minutes to get into town from work.

also roadworks near the cinema on Manchester Road, where cars that are going up Manchester Road from Centenary Way are forced to use the hatch markings, which is likely to cause a bottleneck at the top of Centenary Way after the game, as both lanes will be full of traffic.

If late for the match is there a turnstile which stays open in JM lower?

Just been going up the opposite way Queen Victoria Road/Eastern Avenue and traffic is at a crawl from Sir John Thursby school downwards

Driving in from manc, finsley gate a better option than down centenary way?

Coming from Clayton le moors via motorway, are we better walking through town from M & S rather than driving round to Manchester Road ?

Expect both will be bad, from what I saw earlier.

M65 is dire too coming up to J10, the Police are on the bridge at J9 waiting for visitors, big queue there too.

Queen Vic Road also closed due to resurfacing. It ain't clever out there.
