My favourite thing about the sign is that it says for "bus rationalisation" and I can't see any rational logic behind it. Harder for passengers alighting, and makes Park Lane more useless as buses will have to double back on themselves if they're heading North from the horse shoe side. They could have made it better for buses by merely enforcing the current bus lane, which nobody ever pays attention to because they know Sunderland Council don't care.

Then past the new station frontage on Waterloo Street, then left onto Fawcett Street, or straight ahead onto Athenium Street and right onto John Street. Traffic out of town will run via Holmeside which will be westbound buses only as far as the Maritime Street junction.

That's not what the art work depicts? Vine Place is westbound only.
