"The main road connecting Manchester and Sheffield could be closed for months after recent storms caused a number of landslides.
“The road is in serious jeopardy,” he told i. “It’s the ground that supports the road [that’s sinking], there’s about a 75ft drop into the river, and if that ground slips into the river, the road could follow it.”
Mr Byford, a former building control officer, says the road is still “moving” and that no proper assessment will be able to take place until it stops."
If they are not going to make an assessment until the ground has settled (stopped moving) then the road will be closed for a long time and the Woodhead Pass and M62 routes will be even worse than normal, particularly since the Northern Rail Leeds Manchester Rail route will be replaced with busses along the M62 during the next 15 years of upgrades.
In 2015, Highways England proposed a £6billion tunnel beneath the Pennines but the project has yet to be signed off.
Shouldn’t that be in the wtf threadA "replacement bus service" for FIFTEEN YEARS?!!!
That’s what “The North” has been allocated instead of a new Electric Leeds - Manchester line,A "replacement bus service" for FIFTEEN YEARS?!!!
That’s what “The North” has been allocated instead of a new Electric Leeds - Manchester line,
The upgrading to Electric will be along the existing route, section by section similar to how the farce which was the West Coast mainline upgrade, and Bradford will STILL be a terminus and not on a through main line.
That’s what “levelling up” means for the laughingly called “Northern Powerhouse”.
Don,t have BT phone line anymore, there internet speed was shi#e, plus everyone's on mobile phones now. We have mobile internet now, even comes on holiday with us, even though i haven't been there anywhere for 3 years except Bluestone.Still waiting for BT to fix phone and broadband here. Only been 2 weeks .
Everytime I actually get through to speak to someone they inform me engineer will be with me tomorrow. Ah well 4th time lucky maybe? Glad I had StarLink delivered just days later.
My line went down on the Friday and was finally repaired last Monday so over 10 days. They told me not to worry as my broadband would automatically connect to 4G but that was hopeless and no amount of experimenting would find me a good signal.Still waiting for BT to fix phone and broadband here.

Yeah. No 4G on their network here. It’s not even the fact they’ve not fixed it yet it’s the lack of communicationMy line went down on the Friday and was finally repaired last Monday so over 10 days.
