The daft thing about it is I can only really see 2 parking spaces that should be taken away anyway. The 2 on union road next to that little car park at the side of the Rose and Crown. The cars parked cause and obstruction to traffic flow. I can't see why no parking zones will speed up buses. When you are driving behind a bus and it stops at a bus stop you can't pass it so you have to wait till it sets off again. The buses slow down the cars not the other way round.

I think it was Brian Roberts that said they don't have any faith that LCC could come up with a good bus scheme after the chaos they have caused with all the build outs at bus stops throughout the borough, especially in Rishton where traffic comes to a complete stand still ever time a bus stops at a bus stop.

Says it all really.
