The gates under the Trafford Road bridge were locked all day today.
This was 08:40 this morning
and this was 18:40 this afternoon
Notice that you can access the path on both sides of the gate, so they are doing nothing except pissing off people trying to get to and from work.
Salford City Council should remove these gates all together.

The issue here is the path's legal status - is it a highway? If it is, have they a traffic order to close it? I cannot tell from Google, but it looks like it runs into a private estate which may be why they close it as doing so means that a claim that a route is highway will probably fail. I would found out the path's legal status first.
