I am not hopefully speaking ill of the dead, and I applaud the family of the young man who died for campaiging to highlight this dreadful junction, but the inquest found he was speeding. I also know someone who lived near him, and he always drove like a bat out of hell. I've seen him drive away from where he lived at break neck speed as little children played in the street.

I still think a mini-roundabout would have been more cost effective, and resulted in the same ends, namely slowing people down as they tear along Haslingden Old Road.
