General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

When I was at school in the 50's Wigan had huge traffic jams then Chapel Lane and Standishgate was choked with traffic then,there has been millions spent on Wigans roads since then but little as changed regarding the gridlocks.

Apart from the fact that car ownership and vehicle use in the borough has increased dramatically over the last 50 years, which cancels out the effect of any road improvement over time.
