Market Place

Reading Borough Council's favourite traffic consultants, Peter Brett Associates, have rejected criticism of the Market Place pedestriansation project after it was attacked by bus users for causing long delays. One angry passenger told us: "Any idiot could have told you that by sending all the traffic down a one way street with not enough room for the buses to stop and overtake without blocking the flow would lead to gridlock."

A spokeman for PBA hit back. "Maybe any idiot would have been able to tell you but we don't employ idiots, only highly paid consultants. We put all the figures into our Reading City (sic) Centre traffic model and it predicted huge profits for us, so we think the scheme has been a great success."
