The road near your house is completely unsuitable for traffic. Write a letter to your local council. In your letter: • Introduce yourself; • Explain what the problem is; • Tell what would you like to be done. Write at least 150 words. You do NOT need to write any addresses. Begin your letter as follows: Dear ....,
Dear Mr. Mayer
I am John Scot and I am currently living in "Locky Hill" next to the "Barlie Road". I am writing to request your urgent action for congested traffic
due to
this
road's improper construction.
As you are aware of the narrow lanes of the street, I should mention that this
situation in addition
to a population increase in the area leads to a large number of cars which are being driven daily through this
street. Everybody gets stuck in heavy traffic and moves at a snail's pace to reach his home. The situation exacerbates when it rains and all people get angry and shout at the others but there is no alternative way.
I kindly ask you to finish the widening project of the street or provide a new path to reach our neighbourhood. If there is another way, the drivers will not have to enter this
narrow path.
I look forward to seeing your response and making the situation better.
Sincerely yours,
John ScotSubmitted by keyhan454 on
