I submit that this proposed A57 link road, while benefiting a small area of Tameside, i.e. Mottram, it will have a hugely detrimental effect on Hollingworth, Tintwistle, Glossop and Hadfield. To save, on average, 5 minutes on journey times from Glossop into Manchester, you are prepared to spent a vast amount of money on a scheme that will increase traffic congestion in Glossopdale and along the A628 Woodhead Pass. This money would be better spent on improving public transport links in the area.
