I VISITED Monks Cross last week and noticed that, because of roadworks, there was a long tailback of traffic from Stockton Lane roundabout, so on the way back I cut through Straylands Grove to avoid the jam.
Yes, I admit, I'm a ratrunner!
If Mr Evely has his way I will not be able to do this in future when this road becomes private.
This raises another point often raised: if a road is used solely by residents, shouldn't they alone pay for the repairs and maintenance and, if not, why not?
