Increased traffic in my town
Dear Sir or Madam,
I contact you because I am very concerned about the increase of car and truck traffic in this town. I believe the motorway <s>works </s> construction is <s>are </s> affecting the normal traffic flow in the area and this is causing many problems in town.
First of all, there is so much traffic that <s>citizens</s> residents have to leave home 30 minutes earlier every morning so that they arrive at work on time.
Second, <s>Secondly</s>, cars are constantly honking and the noise levels are unacceptable. This used to be a quiet town and now it is extremely noisy all the time.
Third, <s>Thirdly</s>, some cars don’t respect the pedestrian crossing and it is not safe for kids to walk to school on their own anymore.
<s>All of all</s> In conclusion (therefore), I believe the mayor should do something to reduce the amount of traffic in our town. I think traffic should be diverted to the secondary road instead of the main road. That way, traffic in the main road could be considerably reduced.
<s>It </s> I would be grateful if you could do something to solve this problem <s>problematic </s>
<s>Yours faithfully</s> Sincerely,
Andrea
<em>Good job! "Yours faithfully" is not used very often. It implies a deep connection with someone. "Sincerely" or "Best" are formal, common ways to finish a letter in a business or government context.</em>
<em>In terms of "works," I imagine you are translating "obra"...in english we more commonly say "the construction."</em>
