MOTORISTS are facing delays on St Peter’s Way after a car broke down.
Firefighters were called to the broken down vehicle, which is near junction three of the M61 where it meets the A666 southbound, at 7.17am this morning.
The driver believed there was a fire in the engine, but when a crew from Farnworth arrived at the scene there was no blaze.
However, firefighters have stayed at the scene to help police manage the traffic.
Commuters are reporting severe tailbacks on the A666.
