Didn't power say he didn't beleive we should be paying the whole rent due to the state of the repairs required, and now it seems they have agreed to pay the whole lot in installments.

Using it to get us a better deal in terms of payment structure. Decent result for us. Hopefully we can sort a long term lease out in the next fee months.

Does anyone know what the £300K "maintenance costs" figure mentioned in the Adver report refers to specifically?  I don't remember seeing that figure mentioned before anywhere in reports relating to the ongoing negotiation with SBC.

Didn't the judge announce that no details of payments etc were allowed to be in the public domain or something like that. I am sure I read that somewhere.

Council money. If anyone is that interested, bang in a freedom of information request.

Is it just a case of sending a letter to the chief executive requesting some info on a freedom of information?  I would be interested to know how much the council has raked in on fines on motorists for using the bus lanes since the cameras were installed?

Where are these cameras? Do they even exist? It'd be nice to once again use Whalebridge the way SBC didn't intend.

Also remember, you can use some Bus lanes from 7pm to 7am even if there are camera's.

Shah seemed to be treating it like a huge victory when all she's got is a payment plan for the 50k and a few meetings she could have arranged anyway.

There are supposed to be five cameras which they said they were going to move around, but the one on Cricklade Road has been there since they purchased it!  The others are meant to be on pinch-points such as the one that is buses only in Ferndale Road, also just off Rodbourne Road and in West Swindon.  the once on Cricklade Road is certainly doing its job, cars and lorries no longer use the bus lane during the day, but I do understand they have been fining - or trying to fine - taxis who are entitled to use bus lanes - another Councillor Heenan cock-up!!

And it makes it worse inthe morning's now as all traffic piles back in that direction - what was the problem using it in the morning only about 1 bus an hour uses it anyway
