TWO problems seem to crop up in your columns regularly.

Traffic chaos on race days and the undesirability of building on farmland at Heslington East.

Most new jobs to be created on the campus at Heslington East are for non-members of the university.

Those 2,500 Science City York jobs would be much more appropriately located at the old Terry's site to spare farmland.

The development of the Terry's site, to include housing and Science City York offices, may even entice a developer to build a link from the A64 to serve the new development and the racecourse.
