The completion of a major roadwork improvement scheme for Birchwood is being hailed as a major success – with residents and commuters already reporting a big improvement in journey times around the town.

Warrington Borough Council and its partners – Cheshire and Warrington Local Enterprise Partnership, Birchwood Park and Balfour Beatty – have announced the completion of the Birchwood Pinchpoint project.

The project has reduced high levels of congestion at peak times as well as improved journey times along the A574 corridor, improved safety for users, including pedestrians and cyclists, and improved bus journey times to and from Birchwood.
