Firstly - if anyone didn't know, Snake Pass is closed from the Bamford turning to Glossop for a couple of weeks.

Secondly - does anyone know if this will affect crossing the road? Was planning a loop round there on Wed coming down Blackley Hey and up Rowlee Farm, I imagine I'll still be able to do that?

It will only be closed to through traffic. The residents of the road will get through.

Yes you will be able to cross.

My understanding is that they have watchtowers every 300yds and dog patrols. I [i]think[/i] hora was planning a tunnel from rowlee farm to the other side of the road, but there are three - tom, dick and harry - and I don't know which is the goer. Podge has perfected his Derbyshire farmer language skills and is going to try his hand crossing as a 'local'. Donald Pleasance and Jim Rockford have nicked a plane and I'm going to jump it on my bike.

They are taking the road up to send it away for cleaning. This involves the whole road going and leaving a 10 foot deep trench from kerb to kerb.

You can cross, but you might need a step ladder.
