Sir – I see in the The Oxford Times (Tesco unveils its plans, June 24) that the supermarket giant Tesco is building more and more supermarkets.

It appears that Tesco can build almost anywhere, but there is no doubt about Tesco's customer service.

The on-line shopping is very good, with deliveries despatched to timetables supplied by customers.

On-line grocery shopping means that for every order placed, one less car will be on the road.

The local authority should join forces with Tesco and promote on-line shopping.

One thousand on-line orders (which is a low figure) will mean 1,000 fewer cars.

In addition to this, it will mean that smaller traders will have more scope, with their customers able to visit them without the traffic hassle.

Across the country, on-line grocery shopping will result in less traffic.
