05 Oct 04 - 01:54 AM (#1288844) Subject: Knutsford services - help? From: GUEST,Sarah Anyone know if Knutsford Services has a pedestrian bridge linking north and south? And, more importantly, if it does, is the bridge open all night? I've got to find somewhere to meet up with my lift on Thursday where I can get back from the northbound side to pick up my car at about 3am! Can't find anywhere on the net that has a contact for the place. Cheers Sarah |

I've now rung the services and established that I can get from one side to the other at an unearthly hour of the morning (wonder who I can persuade to lug my gear up the steps)? Cheers Sarah |
