00:00Q. Do you think the Snake Pass should be repaired or abandoned?

00:02Repaired.

00:03Q. Why's that?

00:04Because it serves a lot of purposes and we've used it many times, from Leedship in Sheffield.

00:11Q. Do you think it's an important link then for Sheffield?

00:13Yes.

00:16I think it should be repaired because it's such an important way for us to get across.

00:22But I can understand that the expense is holding people back, so it's a difficult decision for the powers that be.

00:28Q. Do you use it a lot?

00:29I don't drive, so my only time when I go in it is if I've got a coach pass or somebody else is taking me across to the airport.

00:36And it is the route of choice when it's used.

00:41Definitely repaired.

00:42Q. Why so?

00:43Because I live in Stocksbridge, so it's convenient for us to travel where we travel if we're going to Manchester, Liverpool, all that side.

00:53Repaired.

00:54Q. Why so?

00:56Because it's just a link from us to the other side of the Pennines and the Woodhead Pass, which is just so busy.

01:05And there's too much traffic on the road nowadays anyway, but it would just be horrendous.

01:12Repaired.

01:13Q. Do you need to use it very often?

01:15Yeah, we've got family over in Lancashire and Manchester and we use it all the time.
