Sir – I wonder why county councillors do not liaise with each other when trying to solve similar issues.

We read that Oxfordshire County County is riding roughshod over public opinion with their proposals regarding the Green Road roundabout. Abingdon councillors have a wealth of experience in dealing with traffic problems so why not adopt the same solutions.

The answer is to build additional new houses on the busiest approach roads and stick a few pedestrian crossings around the place to keep the traffic flowing.
