The construction of the by-pass is imperative to the future growth within Glossopdale. Without it the area will simply stagnate due to the endless lines of slow moving and stationary traffic. 1995 I ran a company employing over 220 people in Stockort. The traffic situation then was if I needed to be in my office by 9.00am I had to leave my home in Glossop by 8.00am. However if I left home at 8.50am I could be sat at my desk by 9.10/9.15am. That was 27 years ago, the situation now is much worse we desperately need the by-pass now!
