110 bus service to continue

John Fareham and John Abbott report that Wyke Area Committee have given the go-ahead for a Traffic Regulation Order to facilitate the passage of the 110 bus service without as many double yellow lines as were originally envisaged. Discussions we requested between the officers and Stagecoach clarified that not all the double yellow lines originally suggested when the scheme was first proposed were actually necessary for the unimpeded passage of the bus. We will therefore be able to accommodate most of the objections raised to double yellow lines in places residents considered inappropriate while still giving Stagecoach everything they need to get their modestly proportioned Dennis Dart single deckers through. The area committee, at our behest, also resolved to make representations to Wyke College regarding the current proliferation of cars belonging to students and regularly parked on Grammar School Road. Stagecoach meanwhile have changed their tack and applied to extend the route of Service 110.
