Municipal Corporation of Downing Street,

Sub:- Miserable Condition of Roads
Respected Sir,
I would like to bring to your kind notice the miserable condition of the roads in my locality, Springfield Meadows area, Downing Street, London. The roads are broken in many places. As a result, the vehicles cannot move smoothly.
The buses, trucks, cars and three-wheelers have to halt after every five to six seconds just to adjust to the road breaks and pits. It has been repeatedly brought to the notice of the commission, but in vain.
There is always a traffic problem on the roads. The first showers of the monsoon put things in their worst shape. The residents are in deep distress on this account, and they have repeatedly expressed their resentment through the press as well as through written complaints, but nothing has so far been done.
People have also staged a demonstration last month, and the authorities assured them of necessary action in the matter, but so far, all the assurances have remained mere assurances. I request you to get the roads repaired and constructed without any further delay lest the anger of the public should explode.
