Anyone know what's the latest with the Victorian Arcade? I can see a newspaper story dated Jan 2013 about the number of businesses picking up which is good, but no updates on the restoration of it via a Heritage Lottery Bid.

I have a vested interest because the arcade, and improvements to Blackburn road itself have a direct impact on the through traffic to Warner St.

Also, what's all this talk about putting a bus lane on Warner St? Only way to do that would be to remove left side parking, killing off any remaining visitors to the street.

Thanks.
