I CANNOT believe that the county council still intends to take away the roundabouts at the junction of Marsh Lane and Cherwell Drive shops. They have worked well and kept the traffic successfully moving for years.

It has been proved that traffic lights cause traffic to stop and start, whereas roundabouts keeping the traffic moving. 

When they took out the traffic lights at St Frideswide’s Square and replaced them with roundabouts, the flow of traffic improved and also the pollution rate dropped quite considerably.

Remember the old saying ‘if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it’.
