I disagree with the proposed changes at Sadlers Farm and a new road cutting a huge swathe through the countryside.
Government once suggested we stagger working hours to ease congestion which only occurs at a certain time of day.
In reality little has materialised and once again those who care about nature lose out to this so-called improvement scheme and short term fix.
The truth is mother nature needs all the help we can give her today and certainly does not benefit from yet more road building nor, in truth, does our health.
The £63million proposed cost of the scheme would be better spent invested in public transport and cheaper fares.
Yes, it may be all change but, I ask, are we heading in the right direction?
