Having been born and lived in Glossop all my life (85 years) I was queuing on Mottram Moor 60 years ago. Even then people thought a bypass was a desirable method of dealing with traffic problems. Since that date the situation has become intolerable. Increased use of the motor car, HGVs plus extensive house building in the town has caused this deterioration. Any journey in a westerly direction involved substantial extra time to allow for traffic delays every day of the week.
