Scheme Manchester Road Corridor Phase 2

Scheme description

The proposed scheme seeks to enhance the existing cycle lane provision along the A666 Manchester Road / Bolton Road (between Farnworth Town Centre and the borough boundary with Salford), through road space reallocation and light separation in the form of ‘wand orcas’ (cycle lane delineators with reflective bollards). It is envisaged that the use of light separation, whilst offering the opportunity to modify the scheme in the short term, could be replaced with a fully segregated scheme once the route is established.
