This is one of the most important road improvements to help congestion in the Area that connects the High Peak to the Stockport & Manchester areas where most of the people from the Glossop over to Buxton work so commute on a daily basis as I did in the 1990’s when the traffic was so bad then it used to be a 30 minute queue every night just to get off the Motorway to join the next traffic jam into Glossop. To add to this please note that if the people don’t need to do this commute to work then the biggest employer in the Peak District in my opinion is Tarmac at Tunstead Buxton so how many Wagons use this Quarry on a daily basis via this route not to mention Lomas Distribution next door. I suggest you look at these figures.
