Question to the Cabinet Member for Assets and Infrastructure : 2024/44 - Enforcement on Bus Lanes

Minutes:

 

 

Councillor Fouweather asked:

 

At present motorists can drive in bus lanes at certain times of the day without fear of fines or prosecution. This helps to reduce congestion. 

 

Can the cabinet member tell me if there are any plans to introduce full time bus lanes and the installation of cameras to fine motorists in all current and future bus lanes across the city.

 

 

Councillor R Howells responded:

 

Any increase, decrease or amendments the times of bus lane restrictions would be subject to a traffic order and would be advertised in the normal way.

 

Any enforcement either by police, council officers or cameras, would not impact any person driving legally.
