Traffic plagued road next to HUGE developments and motorway to get big overhaul

A roundabout plagued with queuing traffic will get an overhaul that transport bosses hope will ease congestion.

The section of road sits in the middle of two huge development sites, with the Mottram Bypass planned on one side and the Godley Green housing allocation on the other.This will act as a key link between the two by widening active travel options and improving crossing points alongside enhancing the Hattersley viaduct section. The money will also go towards the maintenance works to the Hattersley viaduct.

Transport for Greater Manchester papers read: “It will improve access to Hattersley, local services and the recently upgraded train station, reduce severance caused by the existing highway network and improve safety. Linking into the Mottram Bypass proposals and Trans-Pennine trail, it will directly support the Godley Green development and the Places for Everyone allocation located adjacent to the corridor, through providing the sustainable travel infrastructure that will improve access to Hattersley and help manage its travel impact.”
