The council made £800,000 in bus lane fines in a 10-month period last year

West Northamptonshire Council (WNC) has responded to calls for the £800,000 it made through a controversial bus lane scheme to be refunded to thousands of motorists.

Earlier this month, Independent Councillor Julie Davenport, of the Far Cotton ward, called on the council to refund every single motorist who was fined for driving in the now defunct 24/7 bus lane in St James' Road opposite Westbridge Garage.
