The current road is a regular and major traffic jam. I live in the High Peak and this regularly puts me off travelling to and through this area. I used to travel a lot in my work and this is one of the worst examples of traffic jams I ever came across. The current road has been a terrible log jam for years leading to people trying to find alternative and inappropriate routes to avoid. Serious environmental impact through say. Burning fuel there and the extra distances travelled.
