DID anyone else notice how lovely and peaceful it was over Christmas without all the Mersey Gateway roadworks?
All the sites were shut over the holiday period.
Gates were closed and equipment and machinery all at a standstill.
No tractors, no drills, no cranes moving, no construction vehicles.
Sheer bliss.
I know we all need a new second crossing and we have to put up with lots of disruption, delays and diversions, but for a few days over the festive season it was a joy to have a silent night.
