This motion calls for the necessary changes to the bus lane along Newcastle Road, a matter that has been raised multiple times on ACM and TMM agendas. While the importance of an 'active travel policy' in designing streets, roads, parks, and other infrastructure is acknowledged, it must also be recognised that this specific location has been identified as problematic. When a policy does not address or resolve the daily challenges faced by residents and road users, adjustments must be made to meet practical needs. In light of these concerns, we request the removal of the bus lane from the park entrance to the junction. This request has been supported by extensive discussions, including numerous emails to senior management and phone calls addressing the issue. The road markings in this area are over 15 years old, the bus stop has low usage, and the reduced bus service further diminishes the need for the bus lane. We urge that this motion be acted upon to improve safety and functionality for all road users.
