Trafford Centre Traffic & the M60

Some people might think living near such a large and well stocked shopping centre such as the Trafford Centre and the nearby Asda as a blessing, me personally would only think that if as in the case of the movie “Dawn of the Dead” I could break in and use it as a refuge from the ensuring hoards of the Living Dead, they’d also think livng near a motorway would be advantagous for easy access to the country’s Motorway system
Well beleive me when I say Living near the Trafford Centre and a M60 Sliproad is a nightmare, most morning’s and evening’s I spend about 15-20 mins just trying to get off the main road onto the road that leads to my house, the problem occurs because the road  where I live connects to one of the main routes to and from the Trafford Centre and a sliproad onto the M60.

This morning I spent 20 minutes waiting for either a gap to appear or for some decent motorist to think ” Hey that guy’s been waiting an age to get out of that junction, maybe I should let him out”, lucky for me this morning such a motorist eventually came along and let me out, otherwise I could have been sat there for another 10 mins.
The solution to this problem  is a  fairly simple one “Install a set of Traffic Lights or a mini-roundabout” .. .  but it’ll never happen . .

Anyway thats me bitching over with.
