YET again we have another gem from Newport Highways as work which is being carried out in Duffryn hasn’t been thought out.

Someone in their wisdom decided to close Duffryn Drive to buses, so lo and behold all pensioners living on that side of the estate are expected to walk from the other side, some no doubt with sticks because all and sundry don’t have access to a car.

Who is this clown? Give him a job when Children In Need comes around, and this to top it all is going to take a week, a week of imprisonment for some people because the bus service is their lifeline.

P.S. Where were our councillors when this was decided?
