Default Commute from Chesham to S. Bush via A40 - bad idea?

Do we know anywhere else that has bus lanes
where the buses start a good hour after the restriction begins?


Basingstoke's two bus lanes are 24 hour.

Basingstoke buses are no more than 18 hours a day.


I think we can forgive that kind of thing.

What's more difficult is a situation like Cambridge where a road's
bus lane was extended to Sundays for one bus every half hour (like
weekdays, 7am to 7pm; but the first bus Sunday is at 9.30am).


But there is no traffic level justification for hugely complicating the
signage for the bus lanes.
