PETROL STATION ON ALTRINCHAM ROAD - ACTION DEMANDED

Sue Murphy the Labour councillor for Brooklands Ward said "

We've had a lot of complaints about the derelict petrol station on Altirincham Road. The site had been sold for retail units, but it looks as if it's going to be a while before they are built. So, we've asked for immediate action - and got agreement that the petrol station will be demolished before the building work starts. That way if there's a delay at least the site will look better.

Sue Murphy added 'It's a real eyesore, and because it's on the main road looks even worse. We've pushed for the site to be demolished and cleared and for that to happen as soon as possible, even if building work isn't going to start for a while.'
