WITH regards to the proposed North Site development scheme, as a resident in Malvern I am in favour of this provided the relief road leading to the island at Townsend Way is constructed now.
My wife and I live on the corner of Lower Howsell Road and Worcester Road. People who drive through Malvern Link to and from work once or twice a day have no real concept of the true amount of traffic that actually uses Worcester Road and Lower Howsell Road today. We regularly have standing traffic in both roads. If traffic lights were installed in Lower Howsell Road, upgrading the present system, we would have great difficulty in taking our car on and off the drive.
The only recourse I can see is for my house to be demolished for the junction to be practical, or alternatively to make Lower Howsell Road and adjacent roads one way as done in many other towns.
JOHN L TURNER, Lower Howsell Road, Malvern Link.
