Below are some simple examples of the lane width issues. These pictures show before the bus lane (BBL) and after, demonstrating the 'discretionary space' which used to allow safe access for residents and safe passage for emergency services or simple over taking and undertaking when cars are turning left or right. Most importantly it demonstrates that the space for cyclists has simply disappeared!

Overtaking & Right Turn
This image demonstrated that traffic was able to flow when cars turned right. At Mile Ash lane, Ferrers Way and particulary when residents turn right in to their drives northbound congestion is being caused as traffic can no longer overtake. This also causes problems when deliveries vehicles stop outside residents houses. There is no longer a way for outbound traffic to overtake safely.
