  • John Pasiecznik

    I strongly oppose this proposed "half-a-bypass", as I suspect most other people in Glossopdale who responded to the latest (of many) public consultations in 2020 also do. If built, this wholly... Read more

  • Peter Allen

    I believe the proposed road scheme will increase traffic rather than decrease it and will contribute to higher carbon emissions at a time when carbon emissions need to be cut drastically. Increased... Read more

    In outline, I believe that the application should be refused on the grounds that it will not provide a sufficient balance of benefits (for the few) over a series of significant impacts (for the many).... Read more
