Glossop is a dormitory town with very few facilities within the town. A huge amount of new houses have been built in this area over recent years with no improvements to the road system and this has meant ever increasing congestion on all the roads out if the town leading to very long slow crawling queues, especially through Woolley Bridge, (over a narrow bridge), Tintwistle and Hollingworth, all feeding into Mottram Moor. Sitting in these queues not only causes a significant waste of time and fuel but also causes a major pollution problem.
