Some cities have even deliberately filled in bus lay-bys


Correct.

just to make congestion worse,


Incorrect.

There are a number of reasons for exterminating bus laybys, from
widening a former narrow part of the pavement, through allowing the
driver to pull away as soon as everyone is off/on to making sure bus
and bus boarder align in order to make life easier for everyone


Incorrect, it makes life easier for the few people who drive buses and screws
up traffic for far more people.
