Glossop has massively outgrown its capacity to allow its residents to move around the town. Houses keep going up, more people come to live here and the town is becoming gridlocked with cars almost continuously. There is no room for anymore vehicles to be passing through the town, hgvs have no alternative but to use Glossop as a corridor to the west side of the country. There is no way we should be getting this quantity of cars and HGV’s passing through our town, not just for quality of air for our family’s children but also for road safety too. Children are all around town pre and post school hours breathing in this heavy traffic fumes. To get to the town for food can take 30-40 minutes each way…..it’s less that 2 miles from my house. Something needs to be done. It is ruining our beautiful town.
