SIR – With reference to Worcester City Supporters’ Trust’s proposal to build a stadium at Perdiswell, Steve Carley wrote that “residents in the Bilford Road area, who already have the council tip on their doorstep adding to the traffic, are certain to have an opinion” (Worcester News, January 30).
Indeed, there are already concerns about the likely increase in traffic if a swimming pool is built where the leisure centre currently is.
Phil Pegler wrote (Worcester News, February 7) that “it is extremely difficult, even now, for anyone – and practically impossible for some elderly people – to cross (the junction of Astwood Road)”.
Residents have suggested that the entrance to the tip is widened, and residents’ concerns prompted a petition calling on the county council to look into potential safety measures.
I share Mr Pegler’s hope that we won’t have to wait any longer for this to happen.
