I totally agree with the content of Yvonne Webb's letter (Our Roads Are A Total Mess, News Shopper, May 25).

Some years ago I wrote to Bexley Council asking that they consider installing a mini-roundabout at the junction of Townley Road, Oaklands Road and Highfield Road in Bexleyheath.

Their response was there had not been enough accidents at this spot to warrant this.

I was amazed when I drove down Brampton Road recently and saw the new roundabouts there.

Sadly we never have the logic of these expenditures explained to us or justified.
