@Peternimmo @BrentToderian the old railway route at least made sense for it's time, the platform meeting the then town pier.

By contrast, giving so much space in a small town centre simply to allow overtaking seems quite unnecessary.

We did look during my time in Council at a test closure of two lanes to gauge the traffic impact - but #TransportScotland would not allow it. They even blocked a new pedestrian crossing. 🤷🏿‍♀️
