M67 motorway (1129 words)
It was to provide a second motorway link across the Pennines to the south of the M62 and link the two cities together by motorway avoiding the Snake and Woodhead passes, which are often closed in snowy weather.
The motorway would then have run around the side of Bottoms Reservoir to reach Hadfield, from which the trackbed of the Woodhead railway line (the former intercity route between Manchester and Sheffield, now closed) was to have been followed up the Longdendale valley to Woodhead.
Although the motorway was constructed as a bypass for the old A57, it never strays more than a mile from the original route, passing almost through the town centres of Denton and Hyde.
