Over the 20+ years I have lived here the traffic has increased.During peak periods the village iis used as a”rat run” mainly towards the M67 motorway and particularly busy to cross the traffic lights at Mottram moor. It can take up to 20 mins to get through these lights . Any deterioration in the weather always leads to huge queues and as the Glossop area is known for road closures on either or both the Snake pass and the Woodhead pass with many commercial vehicles using the M67 chaos can ensue as drivers look for alternative routes alongside car drivers.
