There is a problem in the road outside your house. Write a letter to your local councilor. In your letter: •introduce yourself, •explain what the problem is, •tell the councilors what you would like to be done.

Dear Mr. Smith My name is Abraham Streeter, a resident of Willington Countryside and I am pleased to be in contact with you as one of the respectful and reliable members of our area council. Hereby, I am writing to express my concern about the deficient condition of King Street as one of the main roads in our area. In fact, over the
last
several months the road has developed numerous potholes and cracks.
Therefore
, it poses serious risks for drivers and pedestrians.
Moreover
,
this
situation has made it increasingly difficult for children as they must navigate the school to walk around the hazards.
In addition
,
this
has caused not only some near misses in the area but
also
, damaged some cars during the night seemingly quite formidable to bypass the potholes.
Accordingly
, I respectfully request that the council take prompt action to repair the road by filling the potholes and resurfacing the cracked areas, which
as a result
, doing so will improve safety and accessibility for everyone who uses
this
road. I thank you in advance for your kind attention and look forward to your prompt response. Yours sincerely Abraham Streeter
