Public Transport: Motion [Private Members] (5 Oct 2022)

Thomas Pringle: I will sum up the debate.

If there is...

I do drive around the city, however, and I see what is happening. I do not see much evidence of people driving in bus lanes, which is quite good, but I agree they should be made 24 hour. I use bus lanes outside of the times they are in operation, but it makes a lot...
