I RECENTLY emailed my councillor, Mr Chilton,with regards the forth coming Greater Manchester Marathon, again held here in the south of Manchester, asking how do we get out of our houses.
I got no reply, just a map of the route being run sent by the people who run it.
It gave the same diversion route as last year, rubbish.
I would like to say we as a family give a lot to various charities,and would like to say we are all for it, but,don't you think it's about time north/east/west Manchester held it?
I don't know how much Trafford council get paid for closing all these roads, I would like to know, but I think not it's about time the run was moved elsewhere. After all it is called greater Manchester, not south Manchester..
