Sir - If ever there was a reason for the public to get behind a campaign for a third road crossing of the Severn, then the now is the time. In 2000, 2007 and now 2014 the City has been paralysed. There is an equivalent paralysis taking place in the councils of Worcester City and Worcestershire County Council who have abdicated any responsibility for long term strategic traffic planning. It is hardly surprising then to read in the latest submission documents to the SWDP inspector that Worcester City has the lowest prospect for employment growth of the six Worcestershire authorities. At least councillors Smith and Udall have the courage to go public requesting the North West Flood Relief Road.
