Dear Editor - As a frequent visitor to Bromsgrove, in my job as a stationery delivery driver, I was alarmed to hear about the possible closure of the lay-by at Slideslow island. The lay-by is an ideal place to rest and recuperate during the working day, and also keeps the traffic congestion in Bromsgrove to a minimum.
I would ask you to imagine the situation where the lay-by is no longer available causing van drivers, like myself, as well as heavy duty vehicles to "park up" in the town causing problems for other commuters.
I would also ask you to keep in mind the livelihood of the employees at Ant's snack bar who rely on the lay-by being used as a resting place as their source of revenue.
I hope after considering all the options available common sense will prevail.
