Shoppers were reportedly trapped trying to exit a retail park in Trafford for up to two hours on Sunday (August 6) with others reportedly 'abandoning their cars' out of frustration.
Pictures taken from Trafford Retail Park, Barton Road, showed scores of vehicles snaking around the car park in chaotic scenes that one shopper likened to being 'worse than Christmas'.
Some shoppers reportedly even got out of their cars and walked to McDonald's only to find their car had not moved when they returned, as one mum claimed she spent '25 minutes' trying to get out of her parking space.

Videos and posts about the chaos were shared to social media, including by Clare Jemison, who had visited Sports Direct with her daughter, 10, who has ADHD. She called the situation 'horrendous' and said she would not be returning to the shopping park again.
She said that once out of the park, nearby Barton Road was also congested in both directions up to the M60 slip road, where traffic then eased.
"It took me 25 minutes just to get out of the parking space. Nothing was moving at all," she said. "Some people even abandoned their cars there and went back later on.
"People were getting out of their cars and walking to KFC or McDonald's for food, coming back and their cars still hadn't moved.
"It took us two hours to get out. It was ridiculous and something needs to be done about it. Nobody moved at all because other cars were blocking the roads and the roundabout to try and get in.
"It was absolutely horrendous and I won't be going back. I had my 10 year old daughter in the car with ADHD it was so hard for her. It was worse than at Christmas - absolutely

Rob Brydon says ‘Barbie’ cameo was “shorter than one might have hoped for”
Barbie “was shorter” than he had hoped.The actor, best known for starring in BBC series Gavin & Stacey, made a brief appearance in Greta Gerwig’s Barbie as Sugar Daddy Ken opposite Tom Stourton.Speaking about his cameo role to The Times, Brydon explained that a Sugar Daddy Ken scene was cut from the film.“I recorded two scenes in one day but they used only one, which itself was edited,” Brydon said. “All in all, it was shorter than one might have hoped for.”He added: “However, on the other hand there was a lot of British talent, some of whom were on set for nine months, and their appearances didn’t make the same impact as my one day of work.”Other UK actors in Barbie include Sex Education alumni Emma Mackey, Ncuti Gatwa and Connor Swindells.
