Sutton Council emphasized that the proposed bus lane on the A217 was poorly placed and unlikely to alleviate traffic issues, instead, risking congestion.
During public consultations, hundreds of residents expressed their opposition to the proposal, fearing it would exacerbate existing traffic chaos on a busy thoroughfare.
Sutton leaders criticized the short length of the proposed bus lane, arguing it wouldn't significantly improve bus journey times or travel efficiency.
TfL acknowledged the strong local opposition and confirmed that the bus lane plans would be reversed, citing the need for better public engagement.
