ON February 25 you kindly printed a letter from me objecting to your publication of an image of Blueschool/Newmarket Street from ESG (Herefordshire) Ltd because it wouldn’t fit in between the existing kerb lines.
I believe you have a responsibility to vet ‘propaganda’ to see if it is valid.
And in the same edition an article, by Paul Ferguson, displays an image of Commercial Road showing two lanes of traffic but that isn't what is shown in the February-April edition of Herefordshire Matters or the ESG Link Road planning application. An inaccurate portrayal.
Also the reporter suggests that I believe that “the continental approach does not suit Hereford”.
This is incorrect; my professional view is that we have a lot to learn from the Europeans and shared space is a proven way of engendering a positive relationship between different categories of road users.
