Sir-We must express our utmost concern. Although most people who use the No 3 bus wanted to have it reinstated, was it really necessary to have it rerouted through Stag Hill?

Not only is it dangerous, as Stag Hill is a continuous sweeping bend with many cars parked on both sides of the road, but the two new stops are positioned where it is difficult for any ongoing cars to pass safely.

Also, is it sensible to have four bus stops within a quarter-of-amile in an area where there are a lot of children and a lot of side roads leading to garages?
