AS N Taylor points out, Colin Beardwood's visions of the future are always flawed.

Add office blocks at Newtown Road and the car parking at the hospital to the list.

Young people going to university are advised to pick one some distance from home.

This is so that they take the best out of university life, learning to live independently of the family and work things out for themselves.

This will mean that most of the students coming to the UCW will have a car and from places far afield.

Worcester, unlike other university towns, has far fewer houses suitable for student accommodation.

Worcester, in recent years, has changed into a commuting city, most leaving town in the morning and returning at night.
