SIR: Cllr Howarth says (BEN March 5 ) that: "We now have a shopping area which is free of traffic".

Where is it? Is it Victoria Square, where we are subjected to buses, cars, etc; Newport Street, where delivery vans abound; Deansgate, where all traffic flows, including buses; or is it Corporation Street, where, 12 months ago, a man was nearly knocked down by a car he didn't expect?

Concerned, Bolton.
