Multiple roadworks continue to cause havoc for frustrated Lancaster motorists

Sue Winterbottom said on Facebook: “ Traffic around Lancaster is awful. Avoid if possible. Roadworks on bulk road and now roadworks near to where Dana's was. Lancaster is no good when you have even the smallest of roadworks.”

Mandy Jane Blackwell said on Facebook: “If you think of the thousands of lives that will get disrupted and delayed, all so new student flats can be built.

“Really very sad. People late to work, kids late to school, people missing appointments.”

Ste Hunt said on Facebook: “Can’t understand why the council can’t communicate with the other contractors on Bulk Rd, rather than both roads into Lancaster both disrupted. “Also why not open up the bus lane from Skerton Bridge to relieve some of the congestion?”
