Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to complain in the strongest terms about the roadworks which have been in progress outside my house for the last four weeks.
The noise is intolerable, starting at eight in the morning and continuing until five in the afternoon. Moreover, there has been no attempt to tidy the area around the works and there are bricks and pieces of wood all over the street. This has resulted in unnecessary delays in traffic, not to mention the inconvenience this causes to pedestrians.
As a local taxpayer I am disgusted to see my money being spent in this way. Although the roadworks should have been completed weeks ago, workers keep loitering around, making no attempts to clean the area or finish the project.
I insist that a representative of the council come to inspect the roadworks immediately to see what can be done to improve this situation. I look forward to a prompt reply.
Yours faithfully,
Thomas Brown
