I fully support the Mottramf bypass project. The A57 and Woodhead pass serve as vital cross Pennine links and it is quite incredible that road communication between two major cities,namely Sheffield and Manchester should be limited to a single track road as it is at Mottram. Air quality will be significantly improved if traffic is able to flow steadily through Glossop and heavy lorries carrying thousands of tons of limestone from the Peak District quarries Will not grindto a standstill on Mottram Moor causing misery to the local inhabitants .m
