{{See also|Longdendale Bypass|M6 motorway}}

The [[M67 motorway]] starts at the [[M60 motorway]] in Manchester and heads east where it currently terminates at [[Mottram in Longdendale]]. There were plans in the 1960s to extend it through the National Park to the [[M1 motorway]] and [[Sheffield]]{{cn|date=September 2024}} but it was never built. From here the [[A628 road|A628]] runs through the valley to join the [[A616 road|A616]].

As of January 2008 there are advanced plans to improve the A628 route by bypassing [[Mottram in Longdendale|Mottram]] and [[Tintwistle]] to the north with a spur to the [[A57 road]]. Known as the 'A57/A628 Mottram-in-Longdendale, Hollingworth & Tintwistle Bypass' or [[Longdendale Bypass]], the public inquiry has been adjourned four times and is currently adjourned 'indefinitely'.<ref name=INQ_news>{{cite web|url=http://www.persona.uk.com/mottram/news.htm |title=The Mottram/Tintwistle Bypass and Glossop Spur Public Inquiry – News |publisher=Persona |access-date=21 January 2008 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070622120537/http://www.persona.uk.com/mottram/news.htm |archive-date=22 June 2007 }}</ref>
