For too long the residents of Mottram, Hadfield, Glossop, Charles worth and Broasbottom have suffered from the enormous amount of through traffic from Manchester to Sheffield, either directly or as a result of "Rat Runs". The plans to alleviate this problem by adding a bypass from the end of the M67 through, initially, to Hollingworth and Glossop are a long long tiime coming and can only benefit the majority of people who regularly are stuck in mile long traffic jams both on the M67 and A57 Sheffield road in and out of Glossop. It can only help- with the environment too, reducing the number of vehicles stood in queues with their engines running.
