On plans to review the network of bus lanes, Deputies will be aware of bus lanes being established on routes where a bus service is not provided. This is crazy and must change. Will this issue be examined as part of the review?

Another issue which arises is the use of bus lanes by non-bus traffic during off-peak times. I am aware this could give rise to difficulties but we need to take a flexible approach to the road network. It does not make sense to have bumper to bumper traffic on one lane of a road beside an unused bus lane. Will the review examine these types of issues given that they make a nonsense of the system?
