SIR: I refer to the letter (BEN, June 11) - Traffic control is wanted - J. Alker, with reference to proposed new roads and another industrial estate.

Yes Mr Alker, let application move forward with a properly controlled executive committee and an organised leaflet distribution to people it would effect, ie all, Bolton Road, Longcauseway to Clifton Motorway (Robin Hood Junction), Stoneclough Village and surrounding areas, people taking children to schools, crossing more busy roads, and making sure people have plenty of notice, not just two days with a handful of leaflets delivered.

The situation must be clarified with the communities and properties it would affect as ratepayers.
