Heywood truck stop closing down 28. July

msgyorkie:
Places like Heywood should be protected by law. Its on an enclosed Industrial estate that has many HGVs visiting. In fact any new warehouse estate being built should have HGV parking provided as condition of planning consent!

Instead you will find Amazon will wash their hands of any responsibility truck parking wise by pinning posters to the gatehouse directing you to the nearest truck stops that are miles away (Lymm, Rivington) or in the case of Birch already full to bursting.

Heywood is the only proper truck stop facility in the entire Greater Manchester region, including Trafford Park which has no facilities despite being one of Europes biggest industrials estates.

Ridiculous.
