I feel that it is extremely important that we go ahead with the planned by pass and Glossop spur Road, as someone who has lived on the A57 Woolley Lane, I know the sheer volume of traffic pass our homes is not only damaging the structure but also the mental health of those living right along side at times fast traffic ignoring the speed limits or HGV'S passing you at only an arms length away, this can be terrifying. I now live on a cul de sac in Glossop after living with promises and promises from one government to the other. Anytime and everytime I attend a hospital appointment, it is virtually impossible to plan a time or know just how it is going to take to get outside of Glossop and Hollingworth, you end up sat behind HGVs almost in a convoy first along A57 Brookfield, then along Woolley Lane and then finally Mottram Moor, we the local residents have now waited our fair share of time, we now need action and not words.
