Government leaflet backs bikers
The Government's Traffic Advisory Leaflet for 2007 not only holds motorcycles as a safe and sustainable transport framework, the attitudes towards motorcycles using bus lanes have also been revised.While the decision lies with local authorities, the shift in Central Governments advice could create an opening for bikes to finally use bus lanes legally.The Government's Traffic Advisory Leaflet for 2007 not only holds motorcycles as a safe and sustainable transport framework, the attitudes towards motorcycles using bus lanes have also been revised.While the decision lies with local authorities, the shift in Central Governments advice could create an opening for bikes to finally use bus lanes legally.
They are saying in the latest MCN newspaper that bus lanes all over the country could be legally open to bikers within months instead of years!! Woohoo!! :D :up:

Here's a link to the leaflet.
I really don't see the problem with letting motorbikes use bus lanes. I don't have any on my commute into Glasgow so it wouldn't make any difference to me, but on the few occassions I was in edinburgh, It would have aided my escape ... er I mean allowed me out the city centre a lot more quickly.
If cyclists use it, I don't see why we shouldn't |
