Woodhead Pass

[Guest farnworthowls]

When travelling back home to Bolton after every single match and come to think of it every single time we ever come to Sheffield we get stuck in a huge snake behind some HGV only doing 30, due to the fact its almost suicidal to overtake on that road it makes for a longer trip than it should really be.The Question is - Should HGV's be banned from the pass for safety reasons?? (every time you go on the pass there is a new hole in the wall)Discuss

i know - i used it every week for yrs for the airport. try n relax, too dangerous a road to overtake on. is still quicker than motorway as it is so direct.avoid in snow/ice however - eek.

its jus the same as the motorway i think....

shame that its the pennines there coz if it was a reasonably flat straight motorway you could get from sheffield to manchester in around half an hour...

but its not.
