SIR – What good news, the new development proposal for the Shrub Hill area in Worcester (Worcester News, May 29).

But one thing the council must do is make sure there’s plenty of affordable car parking space because it’s not good news that the city’s wardens are the third most prolific in the entire country behind Liverpool and Coventry (Worcester News, May 25).

Is this just another way of raising money? I tend to think it is.

Once again I say to the council, look at the big picture. By overcharging the motorists it will only drive the shoppers to do their shopping in other towns and we desperately need the motorists to do their shopping in Worcester.

Heaven knows, we already have enough shops closing.

So play fair with the motorists and stop milking them.
