THE article ‘Motala Heights is not an industrial area’ in the Highway Mail (week ending 9 October) is of particular interest as West Riding has a similar problem.
Leslie Road in West Riding, a light duty road, is being hammered daily by a fleet of large trucks, filled with sand, roaring through. They don’t appear to have a contractors name on them.
Hopefully someone can explain who they are, and what they are doing?
