* How long before the first HGV breaks down in the ‘bus lane’.
* How long before a pedestrian decides to walk through it
* How long before a bunch of moron tiktokers stop traffic inside it
As just mentioned, a stupid single regular traffic lane. If something stops or breaks down, people will probably be fined using the bus lane. Why not have ‘smart’ signage that can put set to ‘Use bus/both lanes’ in case of an emergency.
I don’t think it was a good idea to make it two lane and one of them being a permanent bus lane. I’m all for the bus lane, but wouldn’t two lanes for all other traffic have eased the pressure a bit? I just feel there’ll be queues on this most of the day, just like the Blackwall Tunnel – and the entry roads too.
£2.2bn for an extra single lane of traffic across the river! I will be very happy to be proved wrong but I don’t think it’s going to revolutionise the god awful experience of trying to get between North and south east London by road.
Great…
Awesome, now there are going to be 3 routes from SE to E that involve a charge instead of 1.
Thank god there are such good rail connections going that way……
I wasn’t prepared for the video suddenly popping up and so I sadly drowned.
They gonna sling the DLR over to Thamesmead?
Like, before 2040?
I’m convinced this is going to make traffic in and around Greenwich worse. Hope to be wrong
Is the bus lane 24/7?
One lane? Weak.
How exciting, another big earner for TFL, every journey matter$$$$ after all.
A **bridge** a few miles further **downstream** as had been all agreed and planned for and[ ready for construction until Bojo](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thames_Gateway_Bridge) got elected as mayor on the back of goofing around on HIGNFY would have been wonderful. But no we get this instead.
Yay, more traffic being funneled through existing approach roads!
Yay, now we have to pay to cross the river!
what’s the obsession of building the tiniest lanes inside tunnels fucking hell

Taking bets on:
