Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing in regard to the new
airport
Use synonyms
planned to be built in Ota Community of Enugu State. I came across the Guardian Newspaper published on the 2nd of October, where there was an outline about the

project due for
next

year. What drew my attention to it, was the backlash written underneath it. Currently, the community is a tight-knitted neighbourhood with narrow roads.
Therefore
Linking Words
, establishing the
airport
Use synonyms
here will cause a lot of issues,
such
Linking Words
as busy roads,and a noisy environment
as a result

of planes landing and taking off.
In addition
Linking Words
,
this

might lead to an increase in road accidents due to small roads.
However
Linking Words
, I am suggesting that the
airport

should be built between Ota and the nearby town, which is Oguta. There is massive space which can house an
airport

comfortably without disturbing the neighbourhood.
Furthermore
Linking Words
, the government should expand the road network of both communities,
this

will help combat accidents in future, and
also

mount street lights so as to control traffic. I earnestly hope that these problems enlisted will be looked into, at the
next

Council meeting. Yours faithfully, Chika Ime.
