Stanningley
Stanningley is a district of Pudsey, West Yorkshire, England. It is situated approximately west of Leeds city centre on the A647 road, the original main road from Leeds to Bradford.
==UK's first High Occupancy Vehicle Lane==
Stanningley is perhaps most notable for the fact that a section of the A647 road Stanningley Road and Stanningley By-Pass became the UK's first High Occupancy Vehicle Lane in 1998.〔http://www.konsult.leeds.ac.uk/private/level2/instruments/instrument029/l2_029c.htm〕 This important part of the route between Leeds and Bradford experienced high levels of traffic congestion and there were few public transport priority measures. The council originally wanted to install a bus lane, but found that bus service frequencies were too low to justify it.〔http://www.roadsuk.com/lanes/highoccupancy/〕
It began on a trial basis and was made permanent after proving successful.
The project was part of an EU research project called Increasing CAR Occupancy (ICARO). Its objectives were to increase car occupancy by encouraging car sharing and to demonstrate the feasibility of providing a lane for shared use by buses, other high occupancy vehicles, motorcycles and cycles.〔
