"I feel when the old roads around the north of the city centre are closed, the city will encounter conjestion problems."
Jane Coulston, aged 47, Crookes.

Richard Roper, aged 58, Gleadless.

"I haven't as yet had to use the inner relief road, so I can't comment on the effectiveness as yet, but I still think that the closure of the old roads around the north of the city will worsen the congestion."
Mollie Hickman, aged 65, Handsworth.

"I was amazed how quick it was around Park Square roundabout last night, so the relief road is obviously having some effect in that area as traffic usually starts building up around 15:30 and it can get grid-locked quite quickly.
"As a bus user, the new road made no difference to me, as my bus was late as usual due to heavy traffic in the Woodseats area because it is a cross city bus service. Will First buses never learn this idea does not keep the customer happy."
Kevan Smith, aged 50, Manor.

"I don't drive, so am always horrified by the traffic when I get caught up in it. Anything that helps congestion is a good idea, although there are plenty of roads that need repairing before any new ones are built."
Rob McIlveen, aged 26, Crookes.

"Total Confusion!"
Peter Charles, aged 50, Hillsborough.
