I actually live just around the corner from Carcraft and I honestly don't think traffic is an issue any more. You will find that most people now tend too turn off and go up Vigo Lane and along the top instead of just chugging along through Birtley at 20mph.
The worst possible place GNE could place a new depot is the old BOC site. I used to see lorry's sitting there for at least 10 minuets at times trying to get out.
