Dear Sir/Madam
I am writing to you in absolute disgust at the appalling state of the road leading from the top of Brynhyfred St and finishing at the bottom of Brondeg St Tylorstown.
Every time I leave my house I am forced to travel down this rugged track due to the new one way system which I will come onto later. My vehicle is not equipped to travel on such atrocious trails it is of standard manufacturing specification and thus should be suitable to drive on any road I seem fit but in this case I am forced to travel down into this abyss every time I leave my home and take pot luck on damaging my vehicle again which, I will come onto later.
It seems to me that this street is long forgotten by civilization or has been stuck in a time warp and is really thousands of years old and now resembles a roman cobble road, but saying this would be a great insult to the roman road builders which, even with primitive equipment can construct a road which far surpasses anything it seems can be produced by the responsible parties, I even truly believe that the original roman roads are in better condition than this stinking excuse of a road.
On the 5th December I decided to carry out an analysis of the street in question. I dared to travel to the street, again risking life and limb in the process to try to take some photographs of this gorge you call a road. I tried to photograph the bad areas but after some investigation I realised that I would need to photograph every single square inch of the ?street? to truly highlight this disease. Every part of the street seems to be as rugged and un-maintained as the last part.
I summoned all my courage and left my car hoping I would not fall into one of the chasms commonly known as ?pot holes? possibly spraining my ankle. Upon close inspection of this trail I was truly horrified by its true state holes all over the place and bits of stone which one day made up the roads surface I know it is hard to believe that this road was ever safe to drive on due to its state for so many years. I finally realised that I would try to put how horrified I am by the state of the road into words as photographic evidence could not do the job although I do have my own personal photographs.
Now with your permission, I am going to go onto my second point which is the new one way station running through Parry St which, coincidentally the residents had no say in. I am now forced by law to park my car facing up Parry St hill which I profoundly disagree with due to the fact if for some reason my car will not start I would be forced into calling a breakdown service where as before I could just conventially bump start my car down the hill. There is also the issue of water running into my car through means where it would not if my car were parked down the hill but this is not the real issue.
Although the parking of my car up the hill is not my real concern, it is of life or death which I bring up this issue. You may be or not be aware that cars are now forced to pull out of Brondeg St if wishing to go up Penrhys hill at a hideously dangerious junction which I will point out has already lead to one near fatality and the system has only been in use for a maximum of 8 months. I will agree though that not enough time has elapsed since the one way system has been introduced to draw up some graphs and analyse the evidence of Crash/time ratio to see what the average crash ratio is per year on this chancy junction however I do stress that one near fatality in 8 months is far too many.
I would now like to come onto my third point which is, last year through no fault of my own went on a one way voyage down a pot hole located in Ferndale which left me with no car and a 300+ pounds repair bill which to no surprise to me the council failed to reimburse me on even upon the presentation of a bill and photographic evidence. I will now state that I have given a copy of this letter to my solicitor which He is keeping very safe. In the event that any damage of any shape or form comes to me or my vehicle from traveling down the stated street occurs You have been pre-warned of
its state of disarray and I will use everything in my ****nal to extract a full refund for any works which may need to be carried out to me or my vehicle.
I now would like to come onto my fourth and final point which is, the truly horrific job that the work men/women have inflicted on the stretch of road leading through Duffryn St Ferndale. I must point out that when I first saw the road I thought that maybe just maybe some form of road improvements were going to be carried out in this forgotten town, But needless to say upon driving down the road I immediately noticed the white line dividing line was completely off centre of un-square. I then noticed that the quality of the tarmacking was horrendous still leaving bumps and a generally uneven surface. I would think that with the thousands of pounds of equipment at their disposal they could at least have created some form of even surface but, I was wrong my initial thought was that it must have been the first road they had laid or that some joke was being preformed.
I would like to end my letter be firstly thanking you for your time to read my letter, and I hope that someday I can write to you thanking you for the new tarmacking of the Brondeg and Brynhyfred.
With Regards
Mr Morris
