SIR, I am shocked and appalled that the skatepark, the school and the pool are having upgrades while no-one has looked at how to improve the kerbs of Monmouth. They are in dire need of attention as some have spaces of up to an inch between them, yesterday I managed to fit a penny between the kerb and the tarmac. Safe roads should be a priority for all. Your children will thank you. Harry Sachs (Monmouth)
