MRS Kay Loxham (Your Letters, July 2) wrote about the increased congestion around Christ Church C of E Primary School in Walshaw in the event of Affetside children being transferred there.

I can confirm that this already dangerously congested area will indeed become more so. And I speak from first-hand experience, unlike councillors, living, as I do, on the road adjacent to the school.

I understand that the Affetside intake would perhaps result in another 30 or 40 cars battling for parking spaces. I shudder to think of the potential for accidents not to mention the extra pollution.

MRS N. RAWCLIFFE,

Moyse Avenue, Walshaw.
