Sir – In response to your article on the Wolvercote Mill site, (August 8), the traffic problem is minor to what we at Lower Wolvercote will have to endure.
First, the canal/railway bridge is in desperate need of repair or strengthening before all the extra traffic uses it.
Also, the flood risk and drainage system is a major concern for us residents.
The sewers are inadequate as the Godstow Road-Port Meadow end is the end of the line for sewage and drainage. Periodically we have blockages which make our toilets, sinks, washing machines etc unusable. The whole problem needs a massive rethink.
Val and Colin Webb, Wolvercote
