Sir - I know that I am one of many that are incensed at the unnecessary waste of resources and yet again council taxpayers' money being spent on the refurbishment of Abingdon's Market Place.
Everyone without fail has commented that only minor repairs were needed, such as replacement cobbles and they are aghast that the council saw fit to chop down perfectly healthy good-sized trees.
Oxfordshire Council has once again seemingly made a decision to carry out this work against the wishes of the people. No doubt they will be replacing the trees at an immense cost as well.
First the fiasco of the one-way system which is still causing traffic chaos and now this leaves me wondering if they are fit for office. The sooner the people responsible are replaced the better.
V. Hunter (Mrs), Abingdon
