Stop the A6-M60 Bypass: save Stockport’s beautiful Goyt Valley and green spaces
Stop the A6-M60 Bypass: save Stockport’s beautiful Goyt Valley and green spaces
Why this petition matters
Stockport Council will soon take a fateful decision on whether to endorse a Business Case for the four-and-a-half mile, £600 million A6 to M60 Bypass.
The dual-carriageway will devastate one of Stockport’s treasures, the Lower Goyt Valley, as well as the beautiful Poise Brook Valley and green spaces in Offerton, Hazel Grove and Lower Bredbury.
Along the route, residents’ quality of life will suffer from noise, disturbance, visual intrusion and increased pollution.
The Bypass itself is likely to be plagued by congestion. Roads leading to it will be jammed at peak hours.
Yet many councillors including those from areas along the route intend to support the Bypass. We have very little time left to stop them voting to commit a terrible act of vandalism. Please sign this petition and ask your friends to add their support. (Note: SIGNING IS FREE and the petition will only show your name.)
