Sir – Oxford is spending big money on resurfacing streets and pavements — for example at present they are working on New Inn Hall Street.
Yet utility companies can dig the streets up and the council clearly allow them to repair the streets using tarmac rather than reinstating the paving stones as before.
Why do they not insist the repair is done properly — again the taxpayers’ money is wasted.
