Adam Trimingham's article on the Brighton Station site (The Argus, August 5), said the supermarket, with its attendant car park, had been opposed as being out of keeping with the area.

The reason for this opposition is because the car park will generate more traffic in an already congested and polluted area and the supermarket will be damaging to other shops in London Road and the Open Market.

The term urban village makes the development sound like a small rural settlement; an urban neighbourhood would be a more accurate description. None the worse for that, just more accurate.
