TRIBUTE: A photograph of Sylvia Russell has been placed next to the floral tributes to her in The Shambles, Worcester. 4114724903.
Sir - So, discussing the recent tragic accident in The Shambles and amid "an outpouring of grief", at the city council meeting, Councillor Joy Squires says that she has seen "a number of near misses over the years". That being the case, why does it take the death of a 69 year old woman under the wheels of a truck, for her to find her voice and do something about it?
Furthermore, in the same report (News Oct 1) we learn that Council Chiefs pledge to "consider" traffic regulations in pedestrianised areas. As a matter of urgency, I hope!
Mrs Louise Rumford
