AS a resident of Grafton I would like to point out to Judy Priddle (SC2: housing on horizon? Letters, January 15) I am quite capable of making my own decisions concerning SC2.

Having looked at the various routes proposed and compared them on an Ordnance Survey map, the SC2 route appears the most direct following the contours, it has a detrimental effect on the least number of residents and although I object to any road as unnecessary, this is the most sensible option.

I prefer to base my decision on the various facts, not simply “I live in a Grade 2 listed building so it should not come by me”.
