Anna made a sensible post and, instead of answering with a sensible viewpoint, you just called her silly. Sounded like you wanted an argument.

I remember the council discussing a tunnel from Park Square roundabout, underneath the line of Granville St, to the bottom of Granville road to funnel traffic from Sheaf St and the station. I laughed at it and predicted that they would re-pave the Moor again instead, and they did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annie Bynnol Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 One tunnel is not feasible -far too long for road only. -too short for a railway carrying vehicles, journey time and destination problems. -reluctance to pay tolls -thePennine geology is immensely complex being at the junction of the shale, limestone and gritstone. - the only 'tunnel' would be for several shorter tunnels. A question the planners have worried about ever since Mam Tor was permanently closed is the capacity problem, ie how many lanes. ANY new link due west of Sheffield centre would attract an enormous amount of traffic off the M18, A1(M), A6, A57, A628, M1, A38/A61 and even the M62, passing through/around Sheffield their house. Previous plans have had to consider ways of reducing demand(tolls) to prevent demand. Everybody wants the journey from their house to be easier but don't want the passing traffic and the new roads. The problem of capacity applies equally to the M60 junctions that a new road would have to link to. Currently the half dozen sub standard alternatives serve to reduce demand spread the congestion around. Many Sheffield car and van drivers(and potentially bus passengers) users will benefit from the “Mottram Moor Link Road and A57 Link Road project” which has now (nearly)jumped its final legal hurdle. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
