I AM very saddened and shocked at the accident on Sunday, involving the two young girls.

It is about time Bolton Metro listened to the people of Farnworth and did something about that junction. Tragically a life has been lost. This was an accident waiting to happen.

There is no safe place to cross on that junction, and trying to cross from the side near the newsagents to the other side is impossible. It is the same from the Worsley Road end near the car showrooms.

Bolton Council insists it is not a bad enough junction to work on, yet it has resurfaced Longcauseway, Buckley Lane and Albert Road.

Spend the money where it is needed most.

My deepest condolences to the family of Carla.
