The impression I get from the sketch (Western Telegraph, November 12) of the on-going roadworks replacing the Churnworks roundabout is really hard to understand.
It seems that when this job is finished any traffic coming down Thomas Parry Way from St Davids, wishing to get to the nearby car park, will have to turn left and go all the way along to the Morrison’s roundabout, to do a U-turn and come back to the car park.
Likewise, anyone emerging from the car park, or any of the businesses along there, will have to go all the way up the hill to the mini-roundabout, then do a U-turn, to get back down to where they started from.
I know it is hard to understand, but it is in fact in line with the thinking behind the newly reworked multi-storey car park and the new bus station where you drive along past the building and go in at the end, only to come back, after you have parked, and come out at the beginning.
Both of these schemes create two extra flows of traffic along the same roadway, neither of which are necessary.
Please tell me I am wrong.
