It has started in London, on my way home from work this morning there are new signs up in the bus lanes saying (By picture) that taxis, buses, cycles and motorcycles are allowed in it Very Happy

This might be old news but there where the first signs I have seen go up. This was on Comerical RD just before the A13.

(I think Confused ) I have seen one in Trafalgar Square. Rarely do bikers notice. Only sometimes do I see motorcycles go through.

Instead of going around that Canadian building with the normal flow of traffic and 2 x traffic lights (grey path), you can go straight through the buses bit 1x traffic lights (coming down from Haymarket - green path). And I think it's been like that for quite some time... I think... Rolling Eyes

Hi all

This ones not down to boris and probably most local bikers
well aware, but from hyde park underpass down to
piccadilly i think the entire bus lane is open for motorbikes
(certainly from the Ritz down it is)

Would be useful to have an updated site which shows locations of such bus lanes (like the great website with all motorcycle parking in LDN)
