REFERENCE the horrendous traffic jams in Castle Lane. This is ongoing. What happened to the Castle Lane relief road promised in 1972?

The backward-looking councillors at the time who stopped it have left us with this dreadful traffic legacy.

This situation also applies to the connection of Wessex Way and Dorset Way which was down to the backward-looking council of Poole.

What happens next?

Probably nothing.

Neither of the authorities will talk about it, hoping the public will forget about it.
