Sir – A forgotten aspect of the Roger Dudman development is that it has closed the very useful cycle path that led from west of the railway station to Port Meadow, Walton Well Road and North Oxford.


Cyclists who used to use this route are now forced to brave the dangerous roads under the railway bridge, across Frideswide Square and beyond. Hundreds of inhabitants of the new flats will be added to their number.


There is a case for demolishing the northern-most block of flats or making a tunnel through it.
