TRAFFIC AND CONGESTION:

Just as a footnote to everything else that is going on, I was reminded that not only is Horwich going to have to cope with additional vehicles from the Loco Works 1700 Housing development but the site is also earmarked for 7,000 offices spaces... With this type of commercial development how many extra commuters travelling into Horwich by car will this bring on a daily basis? ... And lets not forget the addition draft planning for a further 1,859 house in and around Horwich... that’s an awful lot of cars and vans!
