The bus lanes are being introduced as part of public improvements works around the new Grand Central Station in Belfast
New temporary bus lanes are to come into operation in Belfast City Centre at the start of next month.
The Department for Infrastructure says the bus lanes will "reduce congestion by providing a viable alternative to the car" and is recommending anyone coming into the city centre over the coming months to use active travel or public transport. The lanes will be available to buses, motorcycles, bicycles and permitted taxis during the periods of operation and to all vehicles at other times. Lanes will be clearly marked with white lines and the associated signs. And any accessible parking spaces that are affected will be relocated.In addition, there will be a bus lane on North Street, which will operate from 7am to 7pm, Monday to Saturday, from Bridge Street to Royal Avenue.
The department has said enforcement work at the bus lanes will take place to ensure that the traffic flows as freely as intended.
