THE Newbury bypass was completed in 1996.

By 2003, traffic in the city centre had returned to pre-bypass levels.

In the meantime, the bypass had created new bottlenecks on nearby roads, and more long-distance commuting had been generated.

Those (still!) calling for a Hereford bypass are on the

wrong side of history.
