Motorists fume - waiting at level crossing!


There appears to be no immediate plan to construct a replacement bridge at the Thatcham Station level crossing.  

In May, with a heat wave rising to 27c, the conditions for motorists waiting in long queues for the level crossing barriers to open must be intolerable. If you don't have the luxury of air conditioning in the car, your windows will be open and exhaust fumes will be drawn in.

I have asked West Berkshire Council to erect posters at either side of the level crossing, asking motorists to switch off their engines whilst stopped to reduce pollution in the area.
