The tale of the tape: How Warrington is ready to thrive after the pandemic WARRINGTON is well placed to recover, grow and thrive after the pandemic. That was view of business leaders following the 23rd Warrington Annual Property Review. Held virtually due to the coronavirus andemic, more than 160 businesses signed up to the event which is compiled and collated by Warrington-based commercial property agents, The BE Group, who have authored the report for the past 23 years. This year’s review demonstrates how Warrington continues to respond to the unprecedented challenges of Covid-19, with the resilience of the town’s economy leaving it well placed to recover, grow and thrive.
Work has officially been completed on the town’s £19.89million Centre Park Link scheme. A new bridge across the River Mersey from Chester Road, just north of Gainsborough Road, has been constructed, joining onto an extended Slutchers Lane leading from Wilson Patten Street. New signal-controlled junctions have been constructed at each end of the new link on Chester Road and Wilson Patten Street. Warrington Borough Council says the project will support Warrington’s ongoing growth and transform journeys around one the borough’s most busy road networks. The scheme will improve the overall capability of Warrington’s transport network to deal with incidents and will help make journey times shorter and more reliable for motorists and public transport users.
