LOOKING at the seafront road closures detailed in last week's Mercury it is hard to escape the feeling that the organisation of this work is turning into a shambles.

LOOKING at the seafront road closures detailed in last weeks Mercury it is hard to escape the feeling that the organisation of this work is turning into a shambles.

With that in mind, can I ask if anyone in North Somerset Council has talked to bus operator First about it? The Sand Bay bus (no 1) will be affected but can be re-routed, but what about the busy routes no's 5 and 7 and their access to Waterloo Street?

I would also congratulate those who feel it a good idea to fence off a chunk of the sands just before Bank Holiday, but at least we will find out at last if planks really will hold back the tide.
