Congestion: Work is planned at the Wolvercote and Cutteslowe roundabouts
YOUR report ‘Now you’re facing 16 months of delays on the Bypass with Cutteslowe and Wolvercote roundabout work’ (June 10) gives the supposed reasons for the totally unnecessary and wasteful work on the two roundabouts.
It reports: “Transport bosses said it would improve traffic flows and help meet demand for developments, such as the Northern Gateway business park.”
The work is very unlikely to improve traffic flows. Indeed, it will probably slow traffic down and create more congestion.And developments like the Northern Gateway are not yet entirely formalised, let alone agreed, so it is rather soon to do such ridiculous work.
