The council said the signs were fine in 2018, when they were found to be inadequate. I dont know what, if any, changes have been made in the interim period. Surely if they were inadequate in 2018, generated however much in fines, they'd sort it so they then couldn't rack up I'm sure in five years of there was still a problem it would have raised Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This I have a massive problem with There's a road near me on the way up to Oldham. Section of it is two lanes with the inside lane a bus lane in both directions. Signs clearly state bus lane 7am-10am and 4pm-7pm The amount of abuse that I've had for driving in the bus lane when IT'S NOT A FUCKING BUS LANE AT THOSE TIMES Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got done on there when I was bored and went for a drive in to Manchester in lockdown to see how dead it was Can't say I noticed any signs but my issue was I'd driven down there 00s of times when it was ok and didn't know it had changed so was in auto pilot and as it was so quiet wasn't paying attention to signs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same on the way into Bury on the A58. Depending upon the time of day when I used to take him into college, I would take the inside as it wasn't a bus lane at that point. You'd think it was Moses driving, the way the other cars would all move out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
