IN reply to Mr P Colmer’s letter regarding the clearing of side roads and paths, he states they used to be cleared – I don’t think so.
During the snowy weather of 2009-2010, which wasn’t anywhere near as bad as this year, I slipped on ice on an untreated side road, which resulted in four days in hospital, a two-and-a-half hour operation and screws inserted from knee to ankle.
The Tories were in control then, so to imply things were different is misleading to say the least. – COLIN WHITE, Melbourne Road, Tilbury.
