Indeed it is. Although it will be closed in less than one hour as it's Sunday.

That new one in Clough street gets on my nerves. The traffic is shocking. Three 4-way traffic light systems in about 300 yards of road, each taking about 10 minutes to change, they're fucking awful. I completely avoid that part of the ring road. |

The amount of times i've jumped a red light at those crossings is getting ridiculous. I fully expect a fine in the near future but i'll be fucked if i'm waiting another 5 minutes for them to let another 3 cars through. And as for the ticket barriers......well, it took me 20 mins to get off the carpark yesterday as many a thick tit motorist couldn't put their exit tickets into the machine the right way up.

Do you enter from Broad St or Clough St? Is the old Tesco shut down now?

This new Tesco's really messed with my sense of direction when I'm going round Hanley.
Joe - they've basically joined up the Octagon Retail Park (on Etruria road) to the bottom end of Potteries Way, so you can come in to the new Tesco in any direction.
If you go on Google maps, the new Tesco is in the gap between Morley St., Clough St. and Broad St.

Ta betty. I'm intrigued as to what it'll look like!

 The green line is where Potteries Way has been extended to meet Etruria Rd, and the Blue outline is where the new Tesco is (with the more square bit at the bottom being the store, the rest is car park, fuel etc.) |
