I despair of the money wasted on bypass
Leominster, Ludlow and Ross-on-Wye have bypasses but not Hereford. The planners have put just about everything one may need to get to on the A49 – start with Asda, the new cinema and shops, the theatre, Pizza Hut Retail Park, Holmer Road Retail Park, the leisure centre. Other places such as the town centre, the cattle market, the football ground and the tip have to be accessed by using the A49. The council suggest we use buses and other forms of transport. I am sure the bus driver will be very happy when I bring five bags of garden waste onto his bus!
