Seriously deficient, newly installed, island bus stop Union Lane (inbound) 0500CCITY083 commissioned by @GreaterCambs. Pedestrian obstructions, unsafe for cyclists (NOT designed by @camcycle) discriminates against wheelchair users. 1/8

Yesterday's @GreaterCambs Assembly looked at a number of possible changes to the STZ proposals. They didn't completely rule any out, but some certainly got more support from Assembly members than others...
