    Personally, I think they should just let anyone with a red Suzuki Swift use the bus lane in the middle.

    I could see a reason to amend Wombwell Lane side with the new housing estate in development

    Also just realised this explains why the proposed Burger King Drive Thru on the site of the Black Bull was never built. The proposed layout uses quite a chunk of that land!

    Have you heard anything about the Dutch roundabout that got mentioned ages ago? I've never seen anything to say where it's going if anywhere

    Unfortunately Dave Cherry will have to alter his famous Stairfoot Round` abart song if the bus lane is removed. Also the only dutch roundabout I know of is in Cambridge and for some reason cost millions to convert the existing one to become dutch.
