I refer to headline "Chaos for shoppers" (Leader, October 16) and point out that I raised the looming traffic issues associated with the proposed opening of Woolworths in Roberts Avenue, Mortdale, back in 2012.
My suggestions were to have either traffic lights or a roundabout incorporated into the consent conditions of the development application.
Instead of now turning this matter into a political football, David Coleman, why not be proactive enough to chase up a federal government grant on behalf of your constituents to fund either of these installations.
