COULD I, through the Evening News, draw the city council and Network Rail's attention to the state of dereliction and rubbish next to the triple rail bridges at the lower end of Newtown Road.
It is reminiscent of a Third World country.There are piles of bottles and rubbish against the bridge walls that has been building up for months, the bridges are rusted, the bridge brickwork has weeds growing out of the joints and unsightly water pours out of the brickwork when it rains.
Newtown Road, due to being a main road out to the hospital is now a major route.
What visitors must think of Worcester if they approach by this route I dread to think. Does anyone who works for the council go past this point and think to report it?
It is easy to realise why the bridges are derelict, railway privatisation and lack of funding. It still does not excuse it.
Would they have allowed this to happen in a city like Bath?
TERRY JAMES,
Drakes Broughton.
