Default What are bus lanes worth?

Rob,

One was built down the hill (westbound) on Streatham Common Northside and
seemed to stuff up all the cars and the buses.
It has now been removed. From my observations off-peak, at least the cars
move quicker now.

Are there any other very expensive bus lanes in the London area?


Well, the Kew Bridge bus lane was a total waste of money, and was
removed last year. Rather uniquely, it slowed up the buses as well as
all other road users.


But has traffic got faster since it came out?
