Dundee Lane closed to vehicles following electrical repairs

January 22, 2020 by Lee Leave a Comment

Speaking to the people working at the site they say it could reopen later today, if not it will be a couple of days.

Access up to the old school building is possible but no further. Access to Carnousite would need to be from the top.

Transdev pull out all the stops to rescue Red Express

January 22, 2020 by Lee Leave a Comment

Transdev have announced that the critical Bus route Red Express has been rescued and essentially improved with a faster route during rush hour.

  • New times, including faster rush hour buses, from 26 Jan
  • Irwell Line 481 and 483 to remain the same as now, with no changes
  • All fares remain frozen including weekly travel from £15

Transdev/Rosso have announced that with newly elected MPs and local authority partners, a rescue package was launched for Red Express to keep fast, direct buses between Accrington, Haslingden, Ramsbottom and Manchester.

I spoke with Transdev CEO Alex Hornby last year with regards to the news at the time that the Red Express was to cease to run.

This is fantastic news for Ramsbottom especially given the obvious congestion on our roads and goals being set by Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham outlining Greater Manchester to be carbon-neutral by 2038.

Roadworks on Dundee Lane for electrical fault could cause delays

January 21, 2020 by Lee Leave a Comment

Electricity Northwest have been busy in Ramsbottom recently.

Having recently been causing some delays whilst fixing a fault outside the Fusiliers pub on Bolton Road West (completion date has now been extended from the 21st to the 23rd) they are now attending a fault on Dundee Lane.

Tonight crews were seen excavating to repair the mains cable fault and one network indicates that the works will remain in place for a couple of days.

January 21, 2020 by Lee Leave a Comment

A local resident made me aware of an incident involving First Impression dry cleaners on Bridge Street in Ramsbottom.

These photos were taken around 5:30pm on January 21st.

Hopefully not too much damage has been caused and everyone’s clothes were safe.

Updated: Tre Ciccio enters administration

January 21, 2020 by Lee Leave a Comment

Tre Ciccio have provided a statement regarding the article in Altrincham Today:

Update: The landlord of the Ramsbottom Tre Ciccio has indicated this via social in regards to the report in Altrincham Today:

Tre Ciccio enter administration reports Altincham Today

I was shocked at this, and as the article itself states: ” The news will come as a major surprise for many, with Tre Ciccio seemingly having proved one of the town’s success stories”

I am conscious that running a restaurant is extremely difficult, especially in these times given recent similar reports in the news regarding Jamie’s Italian and Pizza Express

Initially I thought that this was just affecting the Altrincham restaurant however the article states:

“Patrick Lannagan and Conrad Pearson of Mazars LLP, the accounting and advisory firm, have been appointed as joint administrators for the Moss Lane restaurant, as well as its two sister restaurants in Ramsbottom and Bramhall.”

Altrincham Today is not a publication I’m familiar with and there’s nothing on Companies House yet from what I can see.

The article also states:

No redundancies will be made while this process takes place…. Trading at the Altrincham and Ramsbottom restaurants will continue as normal while we assess the financial position of the businesses.
