I am a local resident, having moved to Glossop in 1971 following assurances that a bypass was due to be built in order to relieve the traffic problems in Glossop. The stress of the daily rush hour grind out of - and returning to Glossop was the single most significant factor in my decision to retire, despite my own and my employer's desire for me to stay in post for A further five years. The extreme waste of commercial and personal time and physical resources, all of which increase the ultimate cost of living plus the adverse health cost to many residents should not be allowed to continue. Especially since the large number of additional households being created/built in Glossop well inevitably increase the adverse effects.
