The plans for the bypass will do nothing to alleviate the congestion in this area. It will encourage traffic and pollution into a valley that already has poor air quality. It is simply carving up more countryside for no gain. If anything it is to the detriment of the area. There seems little imagination having gone into the plans other than to just create more roads. A far cheaper and environmentally friendly consideration would be to put a weight limit on the roads to encourage heavy vehicles to use the motorways in the area.
