Holmeside amongst a list of locations to get bus lane cameras.

The Oxclose one was going down a storm on Facebook the other day. Which is bizarre in itself, because those bus gates have existed for at least 30+ years I've known of, and most likely date back to when the New Town was constructed.

Plus, most of the New Town villages work the same. Ring-road to provide access to every street in the village, then a cut through the middle for buses. Usually where the Village shops are and very near to the Primary School.

Yeah, I saw that. Bizarre. I'd say that was more about creating social media engagement through being disingenuous.
