A new car park is set to be built at one of Bolton’s most popular parks after the situation with vehicles was described as often ‘chaotic’. Plans submitted this week from Bolton Council show its intention to use a grassed area of Moss Bank park to build a 47-space car park next to the current large car park at the site.
The new area will use the existing access road to the park. The plans also include landscaping, including a hedge to part of the perimeter and the planting of eight trees. The application said the area in question was a currently a ‘grassed area forming part of Moss Bank Park’. Smithills ward councillor Roger Hayes had campaigned for increased parking at the beauty spot.
