Petition details
Operate all bus lanes 24/7
From September 13 2020 all bus lanes which are part of the TfL roads network started operating 24/7.
However this does not include bus lanes on roads which are operated by the council.
This will benefit people as buses will move faster and as cars will not be using the lanes.
This Petition ran from 14/09/2020 to 26/10/2020 and has now finished.
49 people signed this Petition.
Council response
RE: Operate all bus lanes 24/7
Thank you for your petition that you have requested a response to regarding the above matter.
The Council will be undertaking a review of all hours of operation of bus lanes to determine whether this can be extended to support bus reliability and safer cycling in line with changes made to bus lanes operated by TfL in Tower Hamlets. The review will assess each bus lane on a case by case basis taking into account factors including, but not limited to, business and residential waiting, loading and parking needs and emerging improvement schemes on these routes. We expect the review to take place early in 2021.
Yours sincerely,
Ann Sutcliffe
