(b) Representations received on the prioritisation of improvements to the A57 in major capital road schemes:

The Highways Agency detrunked the A57 in 2002 and 2003. Prior to detrunking, representations had been received from Rotherham metropolitan borough council (RMBC), local groups and Parish Councils for improvement of the A57 from Todwick crossroads west to the M1. Dunham Parish Council was also keen to see the village bypassed. Subsequent to detrunking, information about any improvement schemes on the A57 should be requested from the relevant local highway authority.
