A meeting has been arranged by the Peak District National Park Authority to enable local people to voice their concerns and objections to the proposed A628 Mottram/Tintwistle Bypass which will go through across open farmland, moorland, a local nature reserve, and a section of the Peak District National Park.
Locally, councillors and MPs are supporting the scheme and little publicity is being given to those who oppose the scheme. This is an opportunity for the Peak Authority to see first hand that there *is* opposition to the scheme and that it is not a done deal as councillors would have them believe.
The meeting is to be held at Bradbury Meeting House in Glossop, on Thursday 15th July @ 7pm. There has been little/no publicity regarding the event, so please bring yourself and anyone else who opposes the proposed bypass, so that your objections and concerns can be heard.
Info about the proposals, the proposed route, and results of the sham workshop exercise are available from the Highways Agency website:
http://www.highways.gov.uk/roads/projects/a_roads/a57/mottram_tintwistle_bypass/stake/05.htm
See also http://stopmottrambypass.tripod.com site (a bit unreliable though).
A new website providing info on the sites that will be demolished by the bypass and info on alternatives/contacts is in progress.
Thanks alot.
See you there.
