minus-squareStovetop@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·edit-210 months agoI guess my city is too old to have streets wide enough for dedicated bus lanes.
minus-squareThenThreeMore@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·10 months agoI doubt it. Reduce both directions of car lanes by a couple of meters and suddenly you’ve got a bus lane. Alternatively if it’s narrower work it into a one way system and the lane that was the other direction becomes space for the bus lane.
