In UK law the white light signals are traffic lights that apply only

Yes, I think that law needs to be changed, as it would allow bus-lane
overtakes without the need for a separating traffic island. Bus-lane
overtakes at junctions are about the most effective form of bus
infrastructure, and there are hardly any of them in the UK (though more
than there used to be) largely because they require about a lane and a
half's width to implement (due to the need for a traffic island to
separate the sets of conventional traffic lights) rather than just a
lane (where the public transport white signal can share the pole).

Are there any places in either London or further afield in the UK where
there are signals that differ from the regular road signals?
