Was down there with Julia on Tuesday and she showed us the new access points, along the old railway and soon-to-be-opened tunnels from the lower Wormhill car park. Apparently this makes the approach to Cornice/Chee Tor a lot less and will hopefully offset any parking issues that were soon to arise in Wormhill sooner or later.
On a related note, as someone pointed out, Cheedale is really dry already this year. Someone mentioned climbers blocking the footpath under the Cornice last year and it really is apparent when you look. At one point the path narrows a lot. This is where climbers often dump their gear and is under some of the best routes, so you get congestion. On top of this climbers seldom acknowledge or are polite to the walkers whose paths they are blocking, not out of rudeness necessarily, just more absent mindedly. Would be good to try not to obstruct the paths for folk if it is dry again this year.
