I was driving on Finchley Road where the new roadworks are, and there was a red temporary roadworks board saying “USE BUS LANE.”
I moved into the bus lane before I reached the sign because I could already see it ahead (probably around 50 metres away) and assumed it was telling traffic to use the bus lane due to the roadworks.
I haven’t received a PCN or anything—I’m just curious.
Has anyone else driven through there recently? Did you enter the bus lane before the sign, or wait until you were level with it?
Also, is there any guidance or law that says how far before a temporary “USE BUS LANE” sign you’re allowed to move over? I can’t find anything that mentions a specific distance.
Would appreciate hearing from anyone who’s driven through that section or knows how these temporary roadworks signs are supposed to work.
