A controversial decision for a Labour controlled council.

I am surprised that Sky Blue Way didn't feature on this as well!
Not very good. Some bus lanes can go but some, Old Church Road, really should stay as it is chaos on Foleshill Road at the best of times!

This is about to feature in ITV Central News.

A small number of bus lanes are being suspended.
Most of which are scraps of wide road used in the name of bus priority.
This is not the same as Liverpool where all bus lanes were suspended and most valuable were subsequently reinstated and kept.
Indeed despite these challenges Arriva Merseyside still beat NX in the UK bus awards i'm sure their proactive management style to keep them helped in that success.
The concept of being energised by challenge seems completely alien to NX.
