Traffic is shown backed up on Capital Drive in the west end of Charlottetown in this photograph taken on the morning of Sept. 12. - Carolyn DrakeAs per the picture in the article of the traffic jam on Capital Drive in Charlottetown , I am in awe as I reflect on all the talk about air quality control and emission control to save our environment.

The emissions from these vehicles in the traffic jam, which is causing severe pollution, to say nothing of the inconvenience for the people living in Orchard Hill Park and many commuting to work, is quite a dilemma. I am, however, left with this question: Since there have been bailey bridges built all across the Island, one most notably, in Morell which kept traffic flowing freely, why, in this case, would a bailey bridge not work in Orchard Hill Park?

Which has the greater negative, environmental impact? Traffic jams for an hour or more or a bailey bridge to keep traffic flowing?SaltWire Network welcomes letters on matters of public interest for publication.
