Default Kew Bridge bus lane

sorry if I wasn't clear - traffic is stuck in the left hand lane before
even going on to the bridge and stays in that lane even if going through to
Chiswick roundabout. Except that they have to filter into the right hand
lane once beyond the lights


The solution to that problem would be to remove the 24/7 bus lane on Chiswick High
Road n/b between Kew Bridge and Chiswick Roundabout, which restricts the
capacity of the road outside Brentford Fountain Leisure Centre. All the traffic
including buses would flow more freely over Kew Bridge if this bus lane was
removed.

There used to be a sign on Kew Bridge advising drivers "Use both lanes for
Chiswick Roundabout". The sign was removed when the bus lane was suspended.
