LETTER:Brum, a dump but no sump

Sir: Jonathan Glancy commented on the "fuming motorways" surrounding my home. Well, London has its own ring road, the M25, and I have spent many an hour fuming at being stuck on it, not to mention the rest of London's decrepit road system.

If I were to make a choice between visiting the National Exhibition Centre, convention centre and national indoor arena, all of which have excellent access and facilities, or a site which has to be first decontaminated, then I would not be going to London.
