I AM writing in response to the letter by R Swindells regarding the closure of Seymour Road.
I am a resident, and this closure affects me. I am offended by the comments that we should pay for it. Do our council tax and road tax not pay for such things?
Obviously this person does not live in this area. If they did and had children, as I do, they would understand that the closure has prevented traffic speeding through to avoid the lights, thus making it a safer place for our children to play.
Why can't the councillors make an executive decision and go with the majority of votes as to where to put the blockage permanently?
