Wigan motorists grow weary of roadworks chaos
Two sets of temporary lights have been in operation just 0.4 miles apart from one another on Wigan Lane in Standish, between the Boars Head and Cherry Gardens roundabouts.
BT have been working on a stretch of the road since last week, while Wigan Council has been resurfacing another patch nearby since yesterday (Monday), resulting in heavy delays and bumper to bumper traffic over the past few days.
