Not any great spot to stand but it works well enough. Delighted to confirm the freaky geese are still there. This time they were stopping traffic―Ryancomet

Shower, divable dumpster and a good camp spot. What more could you want. Also a quick lift―Ryancomet

Take a train from Manchester, Bolton to Blackrod. You can see how to walk to here from the train station (10-15 minutes). Easy to catch a ride straight to Glasgow or Edinburgh―Anonymous

Bolton West service station. I have never used these services to hitch from, but I have stopped there several times as a driver. I would speculate that it's a bad spot for hitching. The service area is very run down and last time I went it was due for major refurbishment. I'm not saying don't use it, but maybe it's best to avoid if you can find another way.―Anonymous
