Coventry Red Route, what problem is this actually solving?

0 Upvotes

Does anyone actually think Coventry city centre needed all these new red routes?
Apparently the double red lines mean you won’t even be able to stop briefly to pick someone up or drop someone off, except in designated places, with cameras enforcing it.
I was dropping my mum off at the Belgrade and it struck me how difficult they’re making something as basic as safely pulling over for 30 seconds.
Has anyone actually had a serious problem with traffic being held up by people dropping passengers off? Was this really a problem that needed solving?
Coventry has plenty of genuine issues, yet the council seems to spend endless time and money creating more restrictions, cameras and rules, while also making the city centre less convenient to visit.
Maybe I’m missing something. Does anyone actually think this is a good idea?

Trying to help my Mum

hi,

my dad died in 2024, leaving my mum on her own. they did everything together and she is now at a loss with what to do with her spare time. when we talk about it she doesn't know what she enjoys anymore to search for groups. are there any women's groups in the area, 50-60 year old that she could attend, ideally single women? or any recommendations?

thank you.
