Light Relief

by Mick Spreader 27. January 2009 02:15

After successfully screwing up the Rose Kiln Lane roundabout, Reading Borough Council are looking for Government funding to help in its bid to bring the A33 relief road to a complete standstill.

Tony Page, Lead Councillor for Transport and Planning at Reading Borough Council, said: "We've learned absolutely nothing from the one way IDR fiasco and in a desperate pursuit of government cash, we plan to bring in road pricing in 10 metre stretches. I'm sure that 10 pence to move between one set of lights and another will not be seen as extortionate."

The section between the B&Q Roundabout and the Rose Liln Lane junction is now scheduled to have 50 sets of lights build on it over the next three years, bringing in £5.00 per journey into Reading.
