THERE is constant traffic carnage as the one way system in Northwich is reduced to one lane.

Like most people entering Northwich via the Winnington or Castle areas, it is beyond belief that the road has been reduced to one lane where the traffic meets around the Bullring.

Even at a quiet time of day there are huge delays, let alone during the rush hour.

As a Northwich resident, I cannot believe town planners would allow this to happen.

Do they not care about the local people that they allegedly represent?

I now often go into Winsford for my shopping, or even Chester, as at certain times of the day, it is quicker to go there than to Northwich due to the constant traffic chaos.

With new housing estates constantly popping up, you would think the planners would be looking to provide additional access routes into the centre, not reducing those that we already have.
