Default These writhing whales of the road have swung their hefty rearends round our corners for the final time.

Zebra crossings and box junctions should be redesigned so that the
lanes are clearly marked through them, and it should be made an
offence to change lane on a box junction or zebra crossing (with
public information films to explain why the change).


Costly and time consuming. Why not just use a more suitable bus?


Show us your working out - you need to do the roadwork *once*, you need
to pay the extra cost of less cost-effective buses *every year forever*.
By your logic you shouldn't put in bus lanes, either, since you're
discounting the upside of providing a better bus service in any
cost/benefit calculation.

The degree of mental contortion needed to join the bendy jihad never
ceases to amaze.
