SIR, Regarding the proposed closure of bus routes 74, X74 and 60 I urge everyone to contact their representatives in Parliament, county councils, the Welsh Assembly and local community and town councils. Please stress your worries and concerns that a lifeline has been threatened. Indeed a most necssary lifeline, for the elderly, disabled and youngsters getting to work and colleges. I have contacted David Davies MP, Jessica Marden MP, leader of Monmouthshire County Council Peter Fox, Nick Ramsey AM and Tony Griffiths, the chairman of Portskewett Community Council. I have found these representatives and their staff most courteous, helpful and sympathetic. So please get in contact to preserve a way of life, which we are all entitled to. The representatives do need to hear from everyone. Shirley Spearing (Portskewett)
