I know nothing of that incident hedman2003, but Eagle st is the busiest street in town. The juction roundabout with Paradise St has at least 2 'bumps' a week, these are not even newsworthy now. So far to my knowledge their have been no fatalities yet. It can only get worse as the new Health Centre and Scaitcliffe Buildings come on line.
The traffic at 'peak' periods at the Blackburn Road end is horrendous, as the drivers try to get off the Croft Street car park and into the main traffic flow, the planners do not seem to consider traffic flow when making the changes in the centre of town.
