Begin your letter as follows: Dear Sir or Madam,

Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing
this
letter with regard to the recent change in
Bus
Route and timing in the New Mount Avenue,
Due to
the ongoing construction of the 7-storey mall. I am Jack residing in 8th Street , a Five-minutes walk from New Mount
bus
depot
. Since I am working in the early morning shift I used to onboard the first
bus
in the morning. A couple of weeks back we were notified of the change in the time schedule and shift of the
bus
depot
to Higher Valley which is about a 5 KM walk from New Mount. My shift timing starts at 5.00 AM so I need to board the first
bus
which is 4.00 AM in the morning.
Whereas
the
bus
timing has changed to 4.30 AM
due to
which I am getting delayed to work on a daily basis.
Furthermore
, there is
also
many pupils and elderly people affected by
this
change as they need to walk long distance for their daily commute.
Instead
of walking to the higher valley
bus
depot
, we have the IG supermarket
bus
stop next to New Mount which is just 2 KM away from ours.
Hence
, requesting you to consider changing the
bus
depot
to the nearer one and some positive changes in the time schedule. Awaiting for your earnest response. Yours faithfully Jack
