I would like to say that I fully support the Mottram Bypass & Glossop Spur Road being built. As a local resident and someone who uses this section of road regularly for commuting, I can say that it would be a most welcomed addition to the local area. Currently the roads are not safe for purpose as they are heavily conjested almost every single day, this creates issues with traffic flow and thus endangering driver/pedestrian safety. On my regular, nearly 2 hour commute, the most dangerous section to drive I belive is the area in which these roads will be diverting traffic away from. Without the build up of traffic this will allow vehicles to travel more freely and provde better visablity on pre-existing roads. This will also most likely increase traffic flow and thus reducing the time to jurney to places, which is something that is desperatly needed in the north west. The link road would be a great addition not only for locals, but for everyone traveling through our neck of the woods.
