Stafford Traffic.

And there was a car hanging over the edge apparently.

Saw the big gaping hole in the bridge yesterday as I drove past. Luckily not to have gone over into the river!

Stafford's low-budget remake of the Italian Job?

 

[Pooryorick]

correct national cycle route 5 is closed due to roadworks at Marston ln.

Not to June, surely? They could easily build a path for peds and bikes.

If they're happy for Rowley Street and Fancy Walk to be two-way, then I doubt that any other niceties will get much consideration.

I would happily avoid the place altogether, if they hadn't buggered up Beaconside...





It'll be fun when the motorway's stuffed.

Fancy Walk - Fancy, apartments

Jo at the bookies says theyve built a moat around Holmcroft to keep the people out

 

[Trumpet]

Or in.

It's an affordable castle for Lord Sta££ord.

Beaconside is walking pace westbound towards Redhill between approximately 16:00 - 18:30 as people try to avoid greyfriers. It would be quicker just to go via greyfriers.

It's an inverted moat, not sure how they plan to cut the grass now though....

Err..

That's enough of that

The other morning I was wishing I'd have gone back down to J13 after dropping hubby off at Astonfields, instead of Beaconside to J14.

Sat queuing for ages on Beaconside because of massive queues waiting at the 3 way lights by the new estate, but hardly anything coming out of the new estate. Those travelling the other way were even queuing the other side of Redhill island and up the stone road to get onto Beaconside .

Sounds about right. The North of town is a no go zone at the moment what with Beaconside and the work on Lloyds roundabout.

Though I have heard that if you use Alliance Street as a cut-through, it can speed things up enormously.

Since the road closure switched (on Monday) from Eccleshall Road to Stone Road, the traffic flow has improved noticeably. No doubt, those going via alternative routes (Beaconside, Doxey/Seighford) are helping to keep the numbers down to a manageable level as well.

Which people? Hope they're not depriving me of a living.

Bookies, Pub, Laundromat, Co-op. It's everything Holmcroft needs to secede from the rest of Stafford.

They'll still use the Doxey Road car park x

Secede is word of the day

I think you've missed Munro debagging from your list.

Not quite sure how you achieve this but it sounds painful
