AS a former resident of Barry and in particular Port Road East, I have watched with interest the carriageway work from the Vale Crematorium up to Wenvoe Garden Centre.

Who on earth within the highway's department of the Vale council thought of siting a bus lane on that road?

How is this bus lane going to ease any traffic congestion?

I think, personally, that this is just an accident waiting to happen as the buses, as well as taxis, will be cutting out of the flow of traffic just past the Vale Crematorium an then back in past the roundabout that travels down the link road.

What will happen to giving way to traffic coming up the link road and going towards Cardiff?

Another observation I have on these "improvements" is who in their right mind has sited a dropped kerb in the middle of this bus lane? Another accident waiting to happen.

I thought the bus lane in Dinas Powys was ridiculous but this one takes the biscuit.
