Travel news on ClassicFM said it was closed between Bamford and Glossop...but that was around 10am.

 

The AA is your best bet.

yeah they could,

but the amount of traffic passing me today in my opinion, is more or less the same as usual for each day this week

A57 Derbyshire - A57 Snake Pass closed in both directions between the A6013 junction in Bamford and the Hurst Road junction in Glossop, because of snow.
