Principal traffic engineer Dave Poucher had previously said that relaxing the restrictions would cause “major problems.”
Although the council has agreed to remove the single yellow line on one side of the road between Granville Street and Rialto Avenue, Mr Poucher said this section was narrower and carried more commercial traffic than the other section.

“Strange how Wheatley ignores the names on the origin al petition - I think it would be fair to assume that they were in favour of the change!”

“I like Jeramy Calarkson's idea to remove all yellow lines in town center's to help the struggling shopkeepers, why must you hold a blue badge to be able to park anywhere near where you would like to shop?”
