Question, What Cost £800,000 To Install 3 Years Ago,

and is now going to cost £1.4 million to remove? answer, Brighton & Hove City Council's bicycle lane in Hove, the Conservative-led council said most users of the two roads in Hove which would be affected did not like the lanes and their removal would 'improve the visual impact and traffic flow,'

however in any good story there is always the other view, Tony Green, of cycling campaign group Bricycles, said: 'when it put in the lane less than three years ago, the city council described this scheme as a state of the art cycling freeway, but now they think it is a blot on the landscape, the administration seems to have lost the plot.'

but of course even I have distorted the facts, of the £1.4 million to remove it £300,000 would have to be paid back to Cycling England, but as Cycling England is one of the quangos that the Government is abolishing, it will not have to be paid back, well that's a relief then!
