RE. Darwen businessman ‘fuming’ at ‘ridiculous noise’ outside his house Not to mention the siting of the bus stop, it stops all the traffic just up the road from his house every time a bus stops!
Also the road dips in that section and everyone stood at the bus stop gets wet through every time a car goes past.
The biggest problem on this small section of road however is the accident waiting to happen.
The place they’ve put an island is where the cycling lane is.
I walk past this place almost every day and the times I’ve seen trucks have to brake from 50mph just after coming round a blind bend to let a cyclist go through this narrow gap in unbelievable.
Someone will die on this section.
Another prime example of bad management by the council.
