I believe that this programme would be beneficial for the area - as long as phase 2 around Hollingworth and Tintwhistle is also completed. This will allow traffic to travel between Manchester and Sheffield mor eeasily, without impacting the local villages through which this route currently runs. It should also be greener because whilst more cars may use the road, they would not be at a standstill at traffic lights as they currently are. Phase 1 on its' own will not improve traffic between the two cities or benefit many residents in my opinion.
