The proposed Manchester Airport Relief Road

The proposed SEMMMS A6 to Manchester Airport Relief Road will provide a new approximately 10km long dual 2-lane carriageway. New sections of road will be built from the A6 at Hazel Grove to the eastern end of the existing A555 at Woodford Road, Bramhall and from the western end of the existing A555 at Wilmslow Road, Handforth to Manchester Airport and the spur road to the M56.

A pedestrian and cycle route is proposed for the whole length including retrofitting it to the 4km existing section of the A555.
