I fully agree with the Green Party submision with the following additional comments. The rail link through Woodhead should be recreated. Ever since Buchanan (1968) we know that road "improvements" create more traffic and more problems. The problems for this scheme are already visible in the traffic predictions. Number plate recognition could be is to impose a user tax on over used roads.
