The volume of traffic, especially heavy goods, has steadily increased over the past ten years. Accidents appear higher than average on the Woodhead Pass route, and pedestrians are frequently at risk in Mottram, Hollingworth, and Tintwistle. Glossop has become a gridlock town at times, and needs to be relieved of the heavy traffic for safety and health reasons. An effective bypass route away from Glossop is the only solution, and needs to begin now.
