An access on to the main road is possible strange hue one can be built for construction and demolition traffic but not regular use. <br /><br /><br /> Car parking even for staff us not adequate.<br /><br /><br />Concerns regarding public assett protection have not been answered satisfactorily <br /><br />On this occasion the Pte are right to keep the name. <br /><br />Last years major changes in Sheffield was a lost opportunity to tidy up the network information ;<br /><br /><br />Highfields and lowfields are frequently mixed up<br /><br />Abbeydale Rd is refered to as Netheredge it isn't <br /><br />Hillsborough and Owlerton are also<br />Mixed up<br /><br />When mistakes do occur there is a reluctance to recitify the error.

This will cause even more confusion in passengers' minds as few will yet realise that Costa has arrived on the scene.<br /><br />Old names for points are often used around the country and are well established in people's minds. How many "toll bar"s are still used as timing points, I wonder? New Ferry, on the Wirral, still maintains that tradition, for example (Stagecoach service 1) and that name has been successfully used for much longer than fbb and I have been around.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
