At Cheadle Area Committee on Tuesday, councillors gave the go-ahead for a build-out to be contructed by the shops on Councillor Lane, at the exit to the one-way section of the Councillor Lane Service Road.

This is in Cheadle Hulme North ward and the local councillors – Paul Porgess, June Somekh and John Pantall – have been working on the issue for some time.

There’s a small section of the service road which is one-way. It’s one-way for a very good reason: if it isn’t, vehicles can cut through a residential area to get over to Roscoes roundabout (where the M60 slip road meets Stockport Road).

The problem is that people have been ignoring it and driving the wrong way down the one-way section which, apart from anything else, is dangerous.

After much consideration and consultation, the proposal that’s been agreed with residents and councillors is to construct a build-out at the exit to the one-way section which will hopefully reduce the number of vehicles using it illegally.
