Fed-up residents near the junction of Wilbraham Road and St Werburgh’s Road in Chorlton, Manchester, have been documenting crashes they say are a frequent occurrence. They claim to have contacted Manchester council about safety measures but their pleas have gone unanswered despite collecting data on the dangerous intersection.
Fed-up residents have taken to recording accidents at a Chorlton junction - and believe ‘at least 17’ have occurred this year.
John, who has lived near the junction since 1988, added ‘Wilbraham Road has always been a speedy little thing’. Neighbour Wahid Akhtar, who has lived nearby for 12 years, said a lot of children use a pelican crossing near the crossroads on their walk home from school.
