🚧 £6.5 MILLION FOR BOLTON’S ROADS – INCLUDING TWO IN TONGE WITH THE HAULGH
Some really good news for our ward.
Greater Manchester’s Labour Mayor, Bev Craig, has announced £60 million of investment in roads and pavements across Greater Manchester, with £6.552 million coming to Bolton
Here in Tonge with the Haulgh, during the 2026/2027 Council year that includes:
➡️ Firwood Lane – Tonge Moor Road to Street End
➡️ George Barton Street – Leslie Street to Entwistle Street
Emily Mort and I regularly raise highways issues on behalf of residents, and local Labour councillors have continued to lobby for investment in our roads.
This is what having **Labour councillors making the case locally and a Labour Mayor investing in our communities** can deliver.
There’s always more to do, and we’ll keep pushing for improvements across the ward, but this is very welcome news for residents.
Labour delivering for Tonge with the Haulgh. 🌹
