The main road through woodseats [ Sheffield ] is an absolute nightmare for traffic, as it probably is in most towns & cities shopping centres. bus lanes both ways morning & evening, but a little respite during the day, when there are 2 lanes in, & 2 lanes out of town [ apart from when its clogged with parked cars ]
BUT !!! the council has come to the rescue with a "road improvement scheme" . they're gonna widen the pavement, & build "designated parking areas". :Ponder: which, in short, means they are extending the pavement 8 ft out into the road every 75 yards !!! WTF !! :nono: :nono: So, in the new year, one of the busiest 2 lane roads in Sheffield, will be reduced to 1 lane. they are installing more pelican crossings. removing the bus lane. & say it will be more user friendly to both motorists & pedestrians ?? In your f****ng dreams :nono: :nono: :

Sounds like stupid road markings and layouts are hitting us all over the country, down here there is road systems that I'm sure are written up by mental patients. :rolleyes:
