Cutting the capacity of some of the cities (I'm talking about Leeds remember) major A road network at peak times by 50% and then wondering why pollution rises because you thought everyone would jump on a bus or cycle in is the work of a fool.
Just like the 2+ lanes they put in, all utter nonsense and a waste of the tax payers money.

Cambridge is exactly the same.
Car hating local council, bus lanes are us and badly arranged and maintained roads, leads to awful traffic issues. Drive a bike they say, take a bus the say.. Great if you live in the locality, not so much if you live in the sticks...
