Summary
Rochdale’s notorious “Spaghetti Junction” is still causing major headaches, but officials say progress is being made. After months of gridlock, a reporter’s firsthand drive through the chaos — including a 15-minute crawl on Bolton Road and a painfully slow Roch Valley Way — confirmed the misery. Locals, like a fuming man in a vest top, are watching the traffic pile up as heavy machinery tears up the road. The $5 million project aims to install smart signals and resurface roads to ease congestion long-term, with completion now expected in just seven months — way ahead of the original 12-month timeline. While the short-term pain is real, the council’s real-time adjustments via CCTV promise smoother rides ahead. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
