I guess you meant the opposite maybe? And yes, they have both. However, as one who used to commute to Beckenham from Preston Park by way of East Croydon, the only time anyone ever used the buses was when the tram system crapped out. The bus took at least twice as long and was five times as grim...

I'd like to see buses replaced by modern trams. If they can do it in Croydon they can do it here. Not only would it be far more environmentally-friendly, far cheaper to build than bus/cycle lanes and far more of a fun thing to do, but the demarcation between tram zones and zones for pedestrians...

Fair enough. Let's see what the investigations show then (tho you seem to be mooting the 'unconscious driver' scenario a bit strongly, whether you're at work or whether you're not). In the wider scheme of things, something CAN and SHOULD be done - by the council officers who are paid by us to...

I read your question perfectly. You've got inside information that I'm guessing has not yet been made available to the public. Clever you. Doesn't alter the fact one little bit that that entire road scheme around Churchill Square is a dangerous mess that will cost the lives of pedestrians.

Whatever it takes to stop a vehicle being able to build up enough speed to cause this...

Needs a thorough investigation as to why at least one bus was going at such a speed right in the centre of our town on the approach to our most major shopping centre as to cause that level of injuries. Then traffic-calming steps need taking so it never happens again. Obviously. Maybe they could...

Traffic islands to break the thing up a bit? That would also force the traffic to slow down a bit. Not that difficult shirley? Same as that crappy three-way junction at the top of North Road where more often than not all the traffic is stopped on reds and the pedestrians don't have the green man...

The facilities for pedestrians crossing the road in that part of town are a complete mess.
