I am a Hadfield resident working from Manchester with significant work-related travel meaning I regularly have to drive the car for work duties. We have battled for the Mottram bypass for 50+ years and now that funding has been secured we must not let party politics get in the way. This bypass will unlock our lives, reduce traffic noise and pollution from HGVs, improve road safety for our families and older residents, allowing Glossopdale to develop economically for our children and their children's sake. It has benefitted from cross-party support and must not be derailed by short-termist thinking.
