Sir, In January, The Oban Times drew attention to the fact that Argyll and Bute Council had included disbanding its Road Safety Unit as a budget saving option for next year.
As you may be aware, this was rejected at the council’s meeting on February 22 and I am sure this was, in part, due to the level of response by the public.
For this reason I would like to sincerely thank you for helping to save this essential service.
