Snake Pass, the Derbyshire road that has been closed for the past month
due to damage caused by landslides, will reopen to motor vehicles from
tomorrow afternoon with a temporary 20mph speed limit and weight
restrictions in place.

Opened as a toll road in 1821, the road carries the A57 between
Sheffield and Manch
Three temporary single carriageway restrictions will be put in place at
Gillott Hey, Alport and Wood Cottage, with temporary traffic lights
installed and a 20mph speed limit in operation.

“The temporary traffic lights will enable us to protect the part of the
road which has moved from any further damage. The drier weather will
also help to significantly reduce the risk of any further landslips
giving us time to monitor and identify a solution to repair the road,
which will require Government funding.

“Please help us help you by allowing a little extra time for your
journey, showing courtesy to other road users and keeping to the new
temporary speed limit,” he added.
