SIR – I do not understand how a slip road on the Bath Road at the Ketch roundabout is going to ease the traffic flow.

It is my experience the slow-moving traffic on the A4440 from the Powick roundabout towards the Ketch is directly affected by the blockages caused because the road is single lane from the roundabout at Powick to the roundabout at the eastern end of St Peter’s.

Traffic along the Bath Road going towards Kempsey does not contribute to the problem.

A slip road is unnecessary.

But then, what do I know?

I must defer to the road planners who made such a magnificent job of the Whittington ‘improvements’.
