Glossop is in desperate need for this bypass. The town continues to grow in population and the traffic situation out of Glossop has been terrible for decades. Glossop is notorious for its awful journey into the town from Manchester and the M60. We have been promised this bypass for years and because there has not been one back street ways out of Glossop are choked too. This bypass must go ahead to support the Northern Powerhouse and allow easier journeys between Manchester and Sheffield/Leeds etc. I think the people of Glossop have reached the end of their tether as a bypass has been promised for over 50 years, and we feel that being in the north means that we are ignored and brushed aside. Thanks for reading this representation. Hi, the building of the bypass is absolutely essential. Getting in and out of Glossop has been getting worse every year due in part by more and more house building in Glossop. We have been waiting for this bypass for decades and I feel that Glossop is being treated as a second class town as other towns seem have their bypasses built in a fraction of the time that Glossop has had to wait. The traffic congestion is now appalling.
