    You say that in jest but it's a very valid point . £21 million shortfall in finances requiring a 4.5% rise in council tax because the shortfall is impacting on public services. But 300K spent on a 100m bus lane that saves 40 seconds and 1 million on a cycle lane 1 mile long in Allensbank road. How much have they spent on roa closures/restrictions and huge underused cycle lanes since Mar 2020? How many lives has it saved and ow many have been lost due to lack of services?

    Seen someone hit by a bike, whilst trying to board a bus on Sunday. In Kingsway.

    That system is lethal, cycle lane between pavement and bus boarding

    The proposed cycle lane along Cathays Terrace and Allensbank Road is , as you say, 1mile long but the cost is £6m not £1m. ...thats about £1k a foot. Crazy waste of money

    They need to do something though, I live by there, the amount of students cycling from Cathays or wherever along allensbank rd to the hospital is crazy. There will be a major accident soon

    You’re lucky. My green bin is still uncollected and the app now says collection has been rescheduled until Saturday which will be 8 days late. Shambles !
