Factory Street Closed for Resurfacing from Tomorrow

November 17, 2019 by Lee 1 Comment

If you often use Factory Street to get through Ramsbottom, you’ll need to go round from the 18th of November as the carriageway is being resurfaced. Many thanks to Alan Groves for pointing this out to me via the Twitter account.

Signs have gone up indicating that Factory Street will be closed from the 18th of November for around a week (allowance for up to 24th of November).

This will have the potential for some knock on traffic and delays so please take this into account when travelling around Ramsbottom from tomorrow. At least it’s only a week though.

Traffic Chaos Set to hit Ramsbottom

July 19, 2018 by Lee 3 Comments


These are not the actual road works…

Ramsbottom is once again set to become gridlocked with more planned road works. This time however it’s not resurfacing of Bridge Street nor a closure for another (fantastic) festival, It’s not even to fix broken water pipes due to the heavy goods vehicles that use our roads. This time it’s gas. Gas pipe replacement works.

Twitter follower Alan Groves brought to my attention (cheers Alan) recently the planned road works ready to hit Ramsbottom this coming Monday which will undoubtedly cause congestion and suffering over all our already busy routes.

The planned start date for the works is Monday the 23rd of July 2018.

Sinkhole appears on Tanners Street

June 9, 2016 by Lee 2 Comments


On the morning of Thursday the 9th if June a large sinkhole appeared in the middle of the cross section between Tanners Street and Rostron Road.

It’s believed the cause of this is likely due to heavy rain and flash floods in the past 24 hours.

Early reports suggest the work could continue to repair the sinkhole on until the 13th if June but this could extend once more investigation is done into the cause of the sinkhole.

Residents are being forced to park on side roads but parking has always been a premium on Tanners Street.

This is Rammy  understands a car was towed away earlier when the owner was unable to be contacted so that roadworks could begin.

I have since been informed that the owner of the car was located and was able to move it before it was towed away.

The car was sitting directly on the hole.
