Residents have spoken out in anger and confusion as they claim that nearby roadworks are causing major disruptions. People are saying that the roadworks, on the A610 road near businesses , are adding as much as half an hour to journey times, as well as causing headaches for businesses and making people late for work.
Residents have also claimed that the roadworks came out of nowhere, with no warning being issued before they began to be carried out.
Nicole Cole, 26, a care worker who lives nearby, said: "It’s been there for a while - everyone I’ve spoken to says it adds an half an hour to everyone's journey. This is a major road that everyone used to get into the city and every time we have left we have not seen a single road worker. It’s causing a massive issue.
