ON Holdenhurst Road, travelling towards town, there is a new bus lane leading up to the traffic lights. There is a bus stop shortly before the traffic lights so there is only a small distance to move from the right hand lane to the left hand lane.
Most cars use the left hand lane and then turn right (in front of the cars in the right hand lane) to go onto the A338 towards town.
If you drive legally, you don't drive in the bus lane and are then faced with a line of cars cutting across you whose drivers have ignored the bus lane markings and drive for a distance in the bus lane.
If we are going to install bus lanes (which I am in favour of), then it is time that enforcement officers were placed at this junction between 8am and 9am to stop drivers using the bus lane. If not, there is going to be an accident at these traffic lights.
