Memorial walkway

Regarding the letter; ‘Profligate Memorial Walkway' (The Weekend Sun, April 18).

The reasons for not constructing a walkway between Memorial Park and The Strand are not emphasised in that letter.

A walkway would provide a safe haven for walkers, cyclists, children and dog walkers.

At the present time we have to navigate a stretch of very busy road, and then a pathway along shopping streets which are very busy indeed.

A walkway along the shoreline would be a wonderful improvement to this dangerous situation.

My walk with my dog would become a real pleasure instead of a rather fraught-with-danger experience.
I hope I speak for the public in a very positive way. We need this walkway.

The CBD does not need money wasted on another unwanted walkway. I am at a loss to believe that you were of proper mind when you state the streets and roads are just so busy and dangerous in the CBD. When was the last time you were in the city center? 1980? There are only on average 1950 people using Devonport Road every day over a 24 hour period or 81 people an hour. That's not busy.
