WARRINGTON Town Hall will be bathed in green light this evening, Thursday, as part of global celebrations. The town’s Muslims will join millions across the world in celebrating Eid, marking the end of Ramadan. Residents are being urged to celebrate the Muslim festival of Eid al-Fitr safely and in line with current coronavirus restrictions. This means that people should meet others outdoors in groups of no more than six, or two households, while adhering to social distancing measures. The festival at the end of the fasting month of Ramadan is traditionally marked with communal prayers in mosques, and visits to friends and family.
WORK: Substantial shoring up was said to have been required for the banks of the River Croal ‘ABYSMAL’ mismanagement of a demolition contract ended up costing Bolton Council £261,000 more than expected after they were not informed of sky-rocketing costs on a prestige project. Councillors heard a contract for the demolition of the former Late Club and Club Ice on Bank Street, for the redevelopment of Church Wharf, was originally set at £395,000. After contractors began work in May 2019, unforeseen additional work was needed to prop the banks of the River Croal and walls and the budget rose to £514,000 by February 2020. But when the final bill arrived in June 2020, it was for £896,000.
