APPARENTLY the inhabitants of Haydock want another supermarket, petrol station and fast food outlet.

This is what the developers are saying who have purchased the land off Church Road known as Central Works, opposite the Iceland exit.

Were you consulted? Did they ask for your opinion? I live on Church Road and I certainly wasn't asked did I want them.

We already have three adequate supermarket, two of which will be a matter of yards from the new development. A petrol station and fast food outlet have closed down just off Piele Road on the A580 due to lack of business so why replace them at all, especially in the middle of a residential area.

The people of Haydock are well aware of the current traffic issues so why make them worse in an area where there are three schools and old folks homes.

The people of Windle opposed development on the grounds of increased traffic, pollution, smell and waste from fast foods outlets so let the people of Haydock get together to make OUR voices heard.

WE DON'T WANT this development, WE DON'T NEED this development.
