"ONE ROAD TO BYPASS THEM AND IN THE DARKNESS CAST THEM"
A
site in praise of Councillor Roy Oldham and his intended
mad legacy of yet more roads , as if we didnt have 20 miles of
them already stretching from Glossop to Warrington!
all
belching out misery, smoke, and guzzling up the remaining
fossils fuels on the very isolated planet on which we live.
There are exhibitions

YOU CAN TELL Tameside Council have
really put a lot of their customary thought and imagination into
these exhibitions, in the sense that "All roads lead to a
ROAD!" No suprises there therefore.
Nothing has been ruled out, except any meaningful attempt to find
a cost efficient non road alternative, which makes sensible use of
the very limited funding that can possibly be made available to
resolve the Longdendale Transport issue.
Perhaps strangely for
a road scheme it is being promoted as Longdendale Integrated Transport Strategy (the acronym is LITS) ,
as it has to appear green to open up the funding purse strings.
It will simply be a
road based scheme that whilst purporting to offer relief to the
over congested areas in the valley, opens the whole area up to
massive development, and spells the end of the Peak Park.
Something for think
about when taking a pleasant stroll in our unique but threatened
countryside, or taking the dog for a walk.
The future of the
place you have chosen to live in because of its lovely rural and
semi rural aspect rests in your hands.
