I HAVE just walked over Southampton’s Itchen toll bridge and it is an utter disgrace.
The steps are broken, the walls covered in green slime, open ground bare and dismal, paving slabs broken,concrete black with dirt, paint work abysmal and rubbish everywhere.
The amount of money this bridge makes can surely put a little back into the upkeep and care of it.
Whoever is in charge of it should get the sack because they clearly never get out from behind their desk to see what a sorry state they have let it become.
One of the gateways to Southampton is more like the rubbish chute. I hope cruise liner passengers do not come this way because they will see what a dump this city is becoming.
P BILLOWS, Woolston, Southampton.
