Codswallop.
It's a dual carriageway with two dedicated lanes plus parking bays plus a cycle lane (between the parking bays and the left traffic lane) southbound, and three traffic lanes northbound until just past the marina where it matches the southbound.
It's also a very busy road, regardless of the speed limit.
Not that I think that the proximity of the road is relevant to this debate. I just think that the drop through busy G is unnecessary and a better location could have been chosen.
