Cop Road Sholver
Until recently this narrow single track lane was a real bottle neck with cars having to reverse out of the way to oncoming traffic.
To solve this problem in June 2007 Oldham Council installed traffic lights on the single track section and also erected brand new street lighting on what was once a previously unlit road at night.

Sholver Green
The original Sholver estate was a concrete jungle of flats and maisonettes, and acquired a reputation as a no-go area. Most of the old estate was demolished and now has been rebuilt with modern housing and better, more open aspects.
